Atlas V flew its only 511 configuration, with one solid rocket booster and a short five-meter fairing, to place GSSAP-5 and GSSAP-6 into near-geosynchronous orbit. The two satellites joined the U.S. Space Force's Geosynchronous Space Situational Awareness Program; separation of the second one came about six hours and 45 minutes after liftoff.
