The need to launch the useless Iridium satellites is what led to the Chinese getting better MIRV technology.

I think it was Loral/Globalstar. It might've been both. All I know is that I had to dump my Loral stock (which I bought on good faith, not knowing the Bernie Schwartz is a traitor).

I recall having some Globalstar stock as well, but my memory is fuzzy of those days. I remember losing 50% of my Loral investment (if I had hung on it would've been worse). That's math I can understand. My broker did worse, he lost his license without admitting or denying guilt for an unrelated matter around the same time. I should look him up and see what he's up to now.
