Additional information COSMOS 1972 (GLONASS)
COSMOS 1972 [GLONASS], also known as Kosmos-1972, is a navigation satellite launched on September 16, 1988, from the TYMSC launch site using a Proton-K/DM-2 vehicle from Launch Pad LC200/39. Manufactured by OAZ, this Uragan bus type satellite has a dry mass of 1200 kg and was designed to operate for approximately three years. It features a configuration described as 3-Axis stabilized with a cylindrical shape complemented by antennas and two panels. The satellite measures 4 meters in length, 1.5 meters in diameter, and its span is 7.8 meters. Its power system includes two deployable solar arrays and batteries. COSMOS 1972 was launched to serve navigation purposes with the payload Uragan No. 44L. The satellites reflectivity (RCS) is noted at 0.8956, but specific details on its motor, ADCS, color, transmitter frequencies, and other operational specifics are not provided.
