Soyuz 2.1a/Fregat-M | Kondor-FKA No.1

Progress Rocket Space Center | RUS
Vostochny Cosmodrome, Siberia, Russian Federation
May 26, 2023, 9:14 p.m.
Status: Launch Successful
Mission:

The Kondor-FKA is a small civilian radar Earth observation satellite designed by NPO Mashinostroyeniya as a civilian counterpart to the Kondor-E satellite. The Kondor satellite features a S-band synthetic aperture radar (SAR), which can conduct both continous swath surweys or detailed spot surveys. The swath width is 10 km. Ground resolution is 1 to 2 m in spotlight mode, 1 to 3 m in stripmap mode and 5 to 30 m in ScanSAR mode.

Soyuz 2.1a | Kosmos 2567 (Bars-M No. 4)

Progress Rocket Space Center | RUS
Plesetsk Cosmodrome, Russian Federation
March 23, 2023, 6:40 a.m.
Status: Launch Successful
Mission:

Note: Payload identity uncertain. Bars-M is the second incarnation of the Bars project, which was started in the mid 1990ies to develop a successor for the Komtea class of area surveillance satellites. The original Bars project was halted in the early 2000s. In 2007, TsSKB-Progress was contracted for Bars-M, for which reportedly the Yantar-based service module was replaced by a new developed advanced service module. The Bars-M satellites feature an electro-optical camera system called Karat, which is developed and built by the Leningrad Optical Mechanical Association (LOMO), and a dual laser altimeter instrument to deliver topographic imagery, stereo images, altimeter data and high-resolution images with a ground resolution around 1 meter.
