Hughes Under Contract for Russian TV Satellite Hughes Space and Communications International Inc. has been awarded its first Russian contract for a telecommunications satellite, launch-vehicle services and ground-station control equipment from BONUM-1. BONUM-1 is a subsidiary of Media Most, a major private Russian media group, which is developing satellite television-broadcasting services in Russia. The new satellite, which will bear the name of its owner, will be an HS 376 high-power model satellite and will provide digital direct-to-home television services to the western part of Russia. The satellite is scheduled for delivery in-orbit in November 1998 and will be launched on a Boeing Delta II launch vehicle. Hughes will also provide the BONUM-1 ground satellite-control equipment for use at the control center and will provide training to the satellite controllers. BONUM-1 will contain eight active Ku-band transponders, which, as a result of digital compression technology, will be capable of providing up to 50 channels using 75-watt traveling wave-tube amplifiers. It will be located at 36 degrees East longitude and will have a service life of 11 years.
