The Air Force Second Space Operations Squadron (2 SOPS) indicates that IIF-11, SVN-73/PRN-10 has been set healthy and is fully operational. SVN-73 has replaced SVN-47 in the E plane slot E2. SVN-47 is now being re-phased from the E2 location to a newly defined E5 node (GLAN = 160°) and is expected to arrive there sometime in April 2016. SVN-34/PRN-04 has been taken out of the operational constellation and sent to Launch, Anomaly Resolution, and Disposal Operations (LADO). PRN-04 is tentatively scheduled for assignment to IIF-12, launching in February of next year.
