Additional information COSMOS 2518

EKS (Russian: ?????? ??????????? ???????, tr. Edinaya Kosmicheskaya Sistema meaning Unified Space System) Kupol (Russian: ????? meaning Dome) is a developing programme of Russian early warning satellites as a replacement for the US-KMO and US-K satellites of the Oko programme.:7 These satellites identify ballistic missile launches from outer space and complement early warning radars such as the Voronezh. This gives advance notice of a nuclear attack and would provide information to the A-135 missile defence system which protects Moscow, as well as other Russian missile defense and counterattack resources. Six satellites are planned to be initially orbited. The first of them was launched on November 17, 2015 and as of September 2019 there are three in service.
