Mission Brief
The 5th and 6th Full Operational Capability satellites will be the 9th and 10th Galileo satellites launched, alongside the 4 FOC and 4 IOV spacecraft already in orbit. The Galileo constellation is ESA's satellite navigation system and is expected to be completed by 2020. Galileo will provide Europe with an alternative to the American GPS and Russian GLONASS constellations, but will be interoperable with both systems.
