Questions for a first conversation

Which Flex Production model assigns payload integration, acceptance testing and design-transfer rights to the customer?
SFL can deliver complete spacecraft or transfer integration and production. HawkEye 360 performs final assembly and testing in Virginia, making responsibility allocation central to comparing supplier proposals.
Which Moonraker Phase A gates must close before a spacecraft manufacturing commitment can be made?
SFL identifies propulsion, navigation, thermal and payload-data challenges. NUVIEW confirms study selection, which does not establish flight procurement or an operational mapping service.
