Kosmos 1045

 1978-100A

---

Kosmos-1045 was a mockup (GVM) of a Meteor-2 satellite, launched on a test flight of the Tsiklon-3 launch vehicle. It carried small solar panels and also carried a DOSAAF amateur radio payload which was given the callsign RS-2 (originally it was to be RS-3.)

The satellite released the Radio-1 and Radio-2 amateur satellites. Object E, cataloged around Dec 1978, has only a few element sets which have epochs in mid 1980. Later element sets attributed to this object are in a lower orbit and belong to a Strela-1M launch.
