SES7, Yahsat 1A, Yamal 54.9e, express am33 @103e, eutelsat 36b
My Location
New Delhi, India
Currently there is intelsat 12 @ 45e
Azerspace 1 @ 46e

Now, this new satellite, intelsat 38 is for 45e, an not 46e.
azerspace 2 @46e, a different satellite than intelsat 38

I m saying this bcoz, there's a sri lankan DTH, by the name of Dialog DTH works at 45e. Its available in India too.
And this new satellite intelsat 38, has a sri lankan beam as well... so this is replacement for intelsat 12 @ 45e.

Azerspace 2 is a different satellite, both are being carried by same rocket.

These european footprints are on intelsat38, not of azerspace. :)

One bird 2 missions. This is a joint mission - part of the payload will be operated by Azerspace & is designated Azerspace 2. Part of the payload will be operated by Intelsat as I-38. It will slot at 45E to replace I-12

One Satellite

Intelsat and Azercosmos OJSCo. announced in February 2015, that the two companies have signed a strategic agreement at the 45° East orbital position. The two companies will closely collaborate on the design of the Azerspace-2/Intelsat 38 satellite and leverage their respective strengths and capabilities during the manufacturing and operational phases of development.

The new satellite will provide continuity of service for the Intelsat 12 satellite currently stationed at 45° East, an orbital location which hosts Direct-to-Home (DTH) platforms and provides connectivity for corporate network services in Africa. The new Intelsat 38 satellite will also provide services across Central and Eastern Europe, Asia and Africa.

For Azercosmos, the new satellite offers enhanced capacity, coverage and service offerings to support the growing demands in the region for DTH, government and network services currently supported by Azerspace-1.

Azerspace-2/Intelsat 38 is scheduled to be launched in 2018.
