They say they're a viable alternative to starlink and ready to start - not sure how much true is that

I read a musk fan saying "but their terminals aren't made in a NATO country" - isn't the same for starlink?

The Americans are definitely going to cut off StarLink, we don't have any option even if OneWeb isn't fully ready.

I haven't checked all of them, but I looked up the first three receivers listed by Eutelsat Oneweb for "land mobility" usage. One was made in the US and UK, one was South Korean, and the one intended for military usage is Spanish. I guess South Korea is not NATO, but that's about the NATO-est non-NATO country there is

The US made one is the real issue. 😆
