Landing pad project history

Principal structures on the pad were demolished in September 2014 as construction of the landing pad began.

SpaceX has perfected RTLS landings on two landing pads that it has built at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station. It was initially thought that the booster used to launch of a fourth batch of ten Iridium NEXT satellites in December 2017 would be the first to land at VAFB but this mission was ultimately performed in expendable mode. In July 2018, SpaceX applied for a permit to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for post-landing communications with a first stage of a Falcon 9 rocket at SLC-4W, pointing to a possible landing sometime in September, possibly for the SAOCOM 1A mission although this was later rescheduled for October 8 (UTC). A few weeks prior to this first landing attempt it was known to the public, again via FCC permits and also public warnings about sonic booms in the area, that SpaceX had renamed this pad as Landing Zone 4.
