First Starlink v2 mini launch from the West Coast - and the first Group 6 mission from Vandenberg. To reach the 43° shell from SLC-4E, the rocket performed a dogleg maneuver skirting the California coastline, burning additional propellant and cutting the manifest to 15 satellites rather than the 22 flown on Cape Canaveral Group 6 missions.
