Associated space launch

The Zaliv-GVM satellites were mass models of the Zaliv navigation satellites, which were launched as payload substitutes on some Kosmos-3M evaluation launches.

SL-8 R/B was lifted into orbit during the mission ‘Kosmos-3M | Zaliv-GVM 1’, on board a Kosmos-3M space rocket.

The launch took place on May 15, 1967, 11 a.m. from 132/2.
