 Ed ~ A little concern with this classified spy satellite is the unused hydrazine fuel onboard. Exactly how much there is has not been revealed.

One of a set of four spy satellites Japan launched has malfunctioned in orbit.
The news is another setback for the Japanese intelligence-gathering programme that has suffered delays since a domestically developed H2-A rocket carrying two spy satellites veered off course and had to be destroyed in 2003.
The IGS 1B radar satellite, one of a pair, which was put into orbit in 2003, had not been operational since March 25 according to an official with the Cabinet Satellite Intelligence Centre.
The radar satellite ceased to function apparently due to a problem related to its battery system.
