VICTUS SURGO

Planned 2026 Q3

Tactically Responsive Space (TacRS) mission to geosynchronous orbit - the first in the Victus series to target GEO rather than low Earth orbit. The Helios 1 orbital maneuvering vehicle, built by Impulse Space, acts as an on-orbit kick stage designed to ferry the Space Force payload from its release orbit to geostationary altitude within 24 hours.
