Kuafu 1

The first test flight of the uprated CZ-3A launch vehicle carried a model of the DFH-3 satellite. It was named KF 1 (Kua Fu), after a mythical character. Mass was 1342 kg. Shape was 2.5 dia 2.2l cylinder + cone.

Gambit-3 15

  1968-064A


KH-8 15 was launched on 1968 Aug 6 by Titan 3B Agena D from Vandenberg. The spacecraft reentered after only 9 days and it has been suggested that it performed poorly, but the short lifetime is not inconsistent with other missions around this time and the Perry history reports a nominal flight with good resolution imagery.

Kosmos 1571

 1984-058A


The TsSKB web site gives this launch as the first Zenit-8 launch. The VKS history talks about Zenit-8 test flights in 1979-83, but I think it's in error (confusion between Zenit-4MKM, Zenit-6 and Zenit-8?).
