My guess is the optics themselves don't need to be very mind blowing anymore. If this is a constellation, you will basically have the ability to combine many lesser quality images into higher res versions for review, and in near realtime, and from many different angles. Slap some AI upscaling magic in there, some object tracking and things like gait and attribute recognition, and you have something fairly close to 'Enemy of the State' capabilities, minus all the BS zooming and looking through walls.
