DS-U2-M No. 1 was launched into an elliptical orbit with an apogee of over 2000 km. It carried an experimental spaceborne maser for use as a satellite frequency standard. The test was probably related to navigation satellite technology, although atomic clock based navsats would not be used by the USSR until the 1980s.
