As reported at Dayton in May 2016, the US government opportunity to launch P3E did not materialize. I am not sure if AMSAT-DL has been pursuing any other leads to launch P3E as they have been involved with the P4A project aboard the Es'HailSat-2 geostationary satellite scheduled to launch in 2018. If anyone has a spare $15 million to take P3E to GTO, please contact AMSAT-DL!

As far as the Fox series:

Fox-1D is scheduled to launch in January from India on PSLV-C40. Fox-1Cliff is scheduled to launch on Spaceflight's SSO-A mission aboard a Falcon 9 later in 2018. RadFxSat-2 (Fox-1E) is scheduled to launch as part of the NASA ELaNa XX mission aboard Virgin Orbit's LauncherOne in 2018.

Other AMSAT projects:

Virginia Tech continues to pursue opportunities for the P4B project to geosynchronous orbit. The GOLF project for CubeSat missions to a wide variety of orbits, including potentially to HEO, is in its initial stages.

I read a few months ago that the P3E project has come back to life and it was closer to launching. I cannot find any data on AMSAT-NA web (in this reincarnation). What is the status of P3E (the semi-geosynchronous bird) to in affect replace AO-40? What is the status of FOX1C & D too?
