Kosmos 2410

 2004-038A


A satellite launched in Sep 2004 was reported to be a test of a new model developed by the Arsenal/Progress team. It would have a life of 6 months. After only 107 days the spacecraft was deorbited but the capsule was lost.

The spacecraft may be designated 11F695U Kobal't-M, or Yantar'-4K2M / Kobal't-1.

One day before recovery two objects were ejected into 169 x 248 km x 67 deg orbits; they reentered within a day.
