The BeiDou system:
has been developed in three phases.
The first phase
was largely experimental with the first satellite placed in orbit in October 2000.
The second phase
provided a regional navigation system and was declared operational in 2012.
The third phase
provides global coverage, with the launch of the final satellite in the network planned for May.
A total of 54 BeiDou-2 and BeiDou-3 satellites have been launched since 2007,
although these include some platforms that provide a degree of redundancy and others used to fully develop the BeiDou-3 system.
