INSAT satellites

Vanes were also used to supply propellant for the Near Field InfraRed Experiment (NFIRE) for station keeping. The satellite was launched in 2007 (Btdlweg and Wallrapp, 2012) which carried two payloads a Track Sensor Payload (NFIRE, 2013) to detect and track missiles, and a Laser Communication Terminal (LCT) (Smutny and Lange, 2006) to test laser communication with the German made TerraSar-X satellite. Vanes have also been used in the Iridium constellation (Garrison et al., 1997), the INSAT satellites (Kale et al., 1972 Menon, 1972 Netter and Prasad, 1988), and the Arabsat television satellites (Rollins et al., 1984).
