In 2012 Boeing introduced the newest satellite design in its product portfolio, the Boeing 702SP for "small platform." The 702SP is an evolution of the Boeing 702 satellite, and continues Boeing's five decades of designing and delivering satellite systems that fulfill customer requirements. The 702SP couples proven technology from Boeing's previous designs with next-generation technology and processes, resulting in an affordable, lightweight alternative design to meet customer needs. The Boeing 702SP can operate in the S-, X-, C-, Ku-, and Ka-band frequencies and, as with all Boeing 702s, is designed to provide 15 or more years of satellite service with additional fuel capacity to enable multiple station changes over the life of the satellite. The 702 family of vehicles is designed to accommodate hosted payloads, such as sensors, UHF and military Ka-band, resulting in additional flexibility for customers.
