According to the 11 day TerraSAR-X PAZ est un satellite d'observation de la Terre de 1 350 kg (dont environ 60 kg d'ergols) stabilisé sur 3 axes ayant la forme d'un cylindre hexagonal et mesurant environ 5 m x 5 m.Il utilise une plate-forme dérivée de celle utilisée pour les satellites radar TerraSAR-X et TanDEM-X. several parameters between both missions: - orbit phasing between the satellites compatible with interferometry analysis (overlapping ground tracks), - the adaptation of the space segment, in particular beams configuration. completion in 2015, Airbus has maintained the satellite in its Barajas (Local Time of Ascending Node) at 18:00 hours.
