1976-121A
Kosmos-881 was the first of the dual-launch TKS VA reentry tests. It was 11F74 No 009A/1 (the A designated the presence of an ADU - Avariynaya DU, escape engine).
It is possible that none of the TLEs available are for the payloads. The single B TLE seems to be for object C, while the A and early C TLEs are for a rapidly decaying object. The D TLEs appear to be consistent with a single object although E may be mixed in.
