>[!success] Mission Success
>[!summary]
‘Get The Hawk Outta Here’ launched from Rocket Lab Launch Complex 1 at 17:28 UTC on June 26th for customer HawkEye 360, a radio frequency geospatial analytics provider based in Virginia.
>
The mission deployed four satellites for HawkEye 360: a trio of microsats to collect and geolocate radio frequency signals from around the world, and Kestrel-0A, an experimental satellite designed to evaluate emerging capabilities and future technology enhancements. The three satellites comprising HawkEye 360’s Cluster 12 will operate in a dawn-to-dusk polar orbit — filling a critical coverage gap and enhancing the company’s ability to extract RF intelligence in regions of strategic interest.
>
‘Get The Hawk Outta Here’ was the second of three missions on Electron in a multi-launch contract to build out HawkEye 360’s constellation. The first mission in January 2023, ‘Virginia Is For Launch Lovers,’ deployed HawkEye’s Cluster 6 satellites to orbit on Electron’s inaugural launch from Rocket Lab Launch Complex 2 in Virginia.
>
All of HawkEye 360’s satellites launched on Electron are deployed from Rocket Lab’s own Lightband satellite separation system.
