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

Progress Rocket Space Center | RUS
Vostochny Cosmodrome, Siberia, Russian Federation
TBD May, 2023
Status: To Be Determined
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.
