Programme status

Current programme status and next decisions.

Sirona remains pre-flight. This page records the current GEO custody baseline, the FusionGuard design programme and the proposed path towards owned or controlled assets.

Last public programme review: 5 August 2026

Current public status

No Sirona satellite is under contract or operational.

Current pre-flight design baseline
Sirona GEO custody payload and ground product on a dedicated partner spacecraft.
Adjacent mission-design track
FusionGuard Phase A reference mission for Gulf maritime and critical-infrastructure decisions, beginning with licensed data and ground validation.
Proposed strategic direction
A staged path to acquired, owned or controlled orbital assets under ADR-002.
Not authorised
No flight build, supplier, launch, constellation, performance or budget commitment.

Decision record

Current baseline and proposed asset direction.

The controlling baseline and proposed asset direction answer different questions and must not be blended into one unsupported claim.

ADR-001

Current pre-flight design baseline

GEO custody using a Sirona payload and trusted processing chain on a dedicated partner bus.

In force
ADR-002

Proposed owned-asset direction

A staged family of Sirona-owned or Sirona-controlled satellite-intelligence assets, with separate release gates.

Proposed, not approved

Evidence roadmap

Evidence required for a flight decision.

The order is designed to retire customer, physical, safety, supplier, regulatory and financing risk before full flight spend.

  1. Customer mission definition

    Ratify the decision, acceptance scenario, rights and commercial instrument.

    Current stage
  2. Real-sky validation

    Run multi-night GEO observations, independent truth comparison and external replay.

    Open
  3. Representative hardware validation

    Bind the processor, secure element, payload interfaces and fault cases on a FlatSat.

    Open
  4. Supplier and regulatory readiness

    Obtain quotations, interfaces, responsibilities, pre-application records and an integrated finance case.

    Open
  5. First asset decision

    Select or reject the build path based on customer, technical, regulatory, supplier and capital evidence.

Representative spacecraft mass model during a generic fairing-envelope compatibility review
Controlled Sirona concept. Generic future launch-interface compatibility review; not a flight unit, booked mission, provider relationship or completed fit check.

Future compatibility review

Resolve the launch interface before a booking.

This generic scene represents separation-fixture metrology and fairing-envelope review. It is not the canonical Sirona spacecraft, a flight unit, a completed fit check or evidence of a launch-provider relationship.

Twenty times

Mission-outcome benchmark.

M20 is a design target awaiting external validation. It compares an entire customer workflow on the same truth set, mission boundary and fully burdened lifecycle cost.

Mission outcome=Decision utility × control × timeliness × trust÷Lifecycle cost and operational burden

No measured 20 times advantage is claimed today. The scorecard is a design and validation target.
