I suspect the CPU in this satellite is a BAE Systems RAD6000, commonly used in NASA spacecrafts. It’s extremely expensive and also brittle due to the materials used. Very hard to get due to export regulations. I tried to source one of these

It's not cheap. I contacted almost all suppliers worldwide, and in EU the price is roughly 2000-3000 EUR for a single sphere. However, one supplier in China called Sintec had in stock for a mere USD 375. It's a grade 50 sphere wit
