1997-008A
The DSP 18 satellite was launched by the first Titan 4B in Feb 1997. The Titan 4B placed the IUS/DSP combination in a 185 x 759 km parking orbit, a much higher apogee than earlier launches. The two stage IUS then carried the DSP to geostationary orbit. The craft was stationed at the Indian Ocean position until the end of 2001 when it was moved to a reserve position.
