Kosmos 2522 ( Russian: Космос 2522 meaning Space 2522) is a Russian military satellite launched in 2017 as part of the GLONASS satellite navigation system.
This satellite is a GLONASS-M satellite, also known as Uragan-M, and is numbered Uragan-M No. 752. [3]
Kosmos 2522 was launched from Site 43/4 at Plesetsk Cosmodrome in northern Russia. A Soyuz-2-1b carrier rocket with a Fregat upper stage was used to perform the launch which took place at 00:02 UTC on 22 September 2017. The launch successfully placed the satellite into a Medium Earth orbit. It subsequently received its Kosmos designation, and the international designator 2017-055A. The United States Space Command assigned it the Satellite Catalog Number 42939. [1]
The satellite is in orbital plane 2, in orbital slot 14. [4] As of March 2018 it remains in operation.
