Transporter-12 has 131 payloads, including CubeSats, MicroSats, and orbital transfer vehicles carrying 30 of these payloads. These payloads will include Connecta IoT (Connecta IOT-5, 6, 7, 8) Network satellites produced in Turkey by Plan-S Satellite and Space Technologies. Additionally, the first test satellite to be sent into orbit by Fergani Space, FGN-100-d1, is also among the payloads.

Higher capacity will be reached with additional new satellites of Plan-S. With the increase in the number of satellites, an important step forward will be taken for commercial service. The company has sent 9 satellites into space so far, 5 of which are test satellites. While one of them is an earth observation satellite, 4 of them are commercial Connecta IoT communication satellites. The company plans to increase the number of IoT satellites to 200 in the coming years.

While Plan-S founder Sami Aslanhan stated in his statement last month that the company’s plan is bigger than these satellites, he said, “Ultimately, we want to establish a communication network that extends from IoT communication to the mobile phones in our pockets.” Stating that this is called NTN (Non-terrestrial networks), Aslanhan stated that they are working on 6G NTN. Direct to phones via satellite 6G connection Voice and data transfer will be provided.

Selçuk Bayraktar, the founder of Fergani Space, announced the launch of the first satellite in recent weeks. It will be launched in January 2025 had announced.

Fergani satellites will have a communication system and high data transmission speeds. These will be established as constellations, similar to Starlink. Fergani constellations will be used in maritime, aviation, IoT, meteorology, logistics and other fields. These will be satellites in the 100 kg class and will serve at an altitude of 500-600 km. These satellites will have various payloads such as communication and geographical positioning. Satellites that can communicate in Ku, Ka, S, L bands will provide global coverage.
