As of my last update, DirecTV operates a fleet of several satellites, typically around 12 to 15 active satellites in orbit. These satellites are primarily positioned in geostationary orbit to provide television broadcasting services across the United States and parts of Latin America. The exact number may vary over time due to launches, decommissioning, or upgrades. For the most current information, it's best to check directly with DirecTV or industry news sources.

For specific numbers on satellites, it's best to consult the latest information from AT&T or DirecTV directly, as satellite operations can change frequently.
