Ship-to-shore SAT link, 800 ms RTT, 2 % burst loss. We muxed 4 K pps telemetry + 1 Mbps H264 over QUIC last year. Head-of-line blocking vanished - TCP would have stalled 12 s on each 200 ms fade. FEC at the stream frame, not packet, let us ride fades with 3 % overhead. QUIC’s real win is acking individual frames; we saw 40 % better goodput vs TCP + application FEC at the same latency.
