About

Triumph is Terran Orbital’s most flown spacecraft platform, previously referred to as Trestles. It shares common modules with the entire satellite bus product line and incorporates the same avionics and GNC algorithms as the larger platforms. Terran Orbital minimized the power storage volume and structure to allow Triumph to fit on almost any launch vehicle, meeting requirements for ‘rail’-based dispensers, including those sold by Terran Orbital. It has a compact tri-fold solar array providing more power to a payload than is often available in this form factor, and is built for unrivaled agility to quickly maneuver between targets and target modes.

Key benefits: small size to allow integration onto almost any launch vehicle; based on hardware with significant flight heritage on missions including NASA’s Pathfinder Technology Demonstrator and GeoStare SV2; unparalleled spacecraft agility.

Baseline modules included: Flight Computer, Backplane, 12V Battery Modules (2), 12V MPPT, 12V Load Controller, Coarse Sensors (2), Star Trackers (2), GPS, Magnetorquers (3), Reaction Wheels (3), LDRR Radio, MDR Radio, IMU.
