UkrKosmos plans to launch up to two new DTH platforms.
Speaking to Mediasat, Yury Balychev, the company’s deputy DG, said that they would be known as DTH Premium and DTH Lowcost and ultimately combined into one project or developed in parallel.
While there may be problems in obtaining high-quality premium content for the former, the latter, targeting middle-income households, would be much easier to develop.
Significantly, Balychev also said that Spacecom may take a direct role in the development and advancement of the project.
As previously reported by Broadband TV News, Spacecom is already working closely with UkrKosmos in other areas.
