Compute hardware: Planned hosted high-performance GPU module, model undisclosed Named Pathfinder 2027 hosted-payload plan. June 9 issuer release names Pathfinder and the current operator roadmap identifies a hosted high-performance GPU payload. No GPU model or measured compute benchmark is disclosed. The June 30 single-GPU figure belongs to an unnamed demonstration and remains held until exact correspondence is explicit. official mission design or environment specification.

Technical specifications retain the source’s original units and evidence status. Hardware counts, compute rates and power are not equivalent; launched hardware does not establish demonstrated performance. Supplier counts include suppliers and hosts only, reflect current filters and cover this directory, not the entire market. “No record” means no disclosure captured; it does not mean the work is unawarded. Latest developments use source dates, not routine review or collection dates.
