Musk says Starlink will keep providing free service to Ukraine
In a letter reportedly sent by SpaceX last month to the Department of Defense, Musk wants the US military to start paying a share. The costs are estimated to be $120 million until the end of the year and $400 million for the following 12 months. These are substantial financial burdens for a private commercial entity to shoulder but then again, Musk did win plaudits for stepping in to help Ukraine.
"We are not in a position to further donate terminals to Ukraine, or fund the existing terminals for an indefinite period of time," the letter to the Pentagon states, according to CNN. The letter was apparently sent in September. On October 4, Musk said SpaceX had spent $80 million since launching in Ukraine – a number that is hard to verify – and he claimed Starlink is"far from cash flow positive."
