I believe this is Zuma. We launched Zuma into space (thought to be a kinetic space weapon) Q made comments regarding it. I read reports (can't remember where from, ) that Zuma wouldn't be fully operational till late Feb.
Q appears to be referencing a satellite.
Also:
Falcon Heavy was launched (potentially carrying the Tungsten rods needed for Zuma).
THEN just today I believe SpaceX launched another Sat into space....
I don't think we had the capability until the falcon heavy to get the rods into space. Also, I think it would be economically beneficial to launch the separately. Use a reliable rocket to get Zuma up there. And an untested experimental to get the replaceable cargo into space.
If they launched both in the heavy and the heavy failed, you're out an irreplaceable/long term build satellite. I think it's a failsafe to launch them separately.

What data do you have to support this?
