1979-053A
DSP Flight 8 was launched in Jun 1979 by Titan IIIC from Cape Canaveral and placed over the East Pacific. It was the first MOS/PIM (Multi Orbit Satellite/ Performance Improvement) class DSP. The MOS/PIM satellites were capable of operating in highly elliptical orbits but weren’t used in that mode. They had extra electronic packages for hardened survivability and added RCS fuel to extend lifetime.
