1965-111A
The Kosmos-102 satellite was a prototype of the `US-A' series nuclear powered radar ocean reconnaissance vehicle. The spacecraft was launched using the special 11A510 launch vehicle, a modified and specially lightened 8K74/III R-7 core; it performed orbit insertion with its own engine, which remained attached. Kosmos-102 did not carry a radar or reactor.
