There doesn't seem to be anything remarkable about this single satellite in the Iridium cluster - it hasn't received independent coverage of any kind. No other satellite has an article except for Iridium 33 (which was destroyed in a well-documented satellite collision), and I don't see why this one should either. I'm not really sure if it should be redirected or converted to a disambiguation page or straight-up deleted. Kdroo (talk) 05:47, 17 February 2024 (UTC)

- Redirect to Iridium satellite constellation: unlike Iridium 33, this one has no SIGCOV about it. Owen× ☎ 15:08, 18 February 2024 (UTC)
- Delete. Does not meet GNC criteria. Redirection is not the optimal solution. Cinadon36 16:19, 23 February 2024 (UTC)
