Kosmos 2350 (Russian: Космос 2350 meaning Cosmos 2350) is a Russian US-KMO missile early warning satellite which was launched in 1998 as part of the Russian Space Forces' Oko programme. The satellite is designed to identify missile launches using infrared telescopes.[1]
Kosmos 2350 was launched from Site 200/39 at Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. A Proton-K carrier rocket with a DM-2 upper stage was used to perform the launch, which took place at 04:36 UTC on 29 April 1998.[2] The launch successfully placed the satellite into geostationary orbit. It subsequently received its Kosmos designation, and the international designator 1998-025A.[2] The United States Space Command assigned it the Satellite Catalog Number 25315.[2][3]
This satellite only worked for 2 months before failing.[1][3]
The US National Space Science Data Center describe this as a Potok military communications satellite instead of an early warning satellite.[2]
