Associated space launch

Meteor-M satellites are a new generation of Russian meteorological satellites to replace the Meteor-3M series. The first two Meteor-M satellites will feature following instruments: - MSU-MR - Low-resolution Multispectral Scanner for global and regional for cloud cover mapping - KMSS-2 - multichannel scanning unit for Earth surface monitoring - MTVZA-GYa - imager/sounder for Atmospheric temperature and humidity profiles, sea surface wind - IKFS-2 advanced IR sounder for Atmospheric temperature and humidity profiles - BRK SSPD - Data Collection System - RK-SM-MKA - Modified Rescue Radio complex One initial Meteor-M 1 satellite was built, followed by the improved Meteor-M 2 series satellites. 42 cubesats from various Russian and international organizations will be launched as co-passengers.

METEOR M2-3 was lifted into orbit during the mission ‘Soyuz 2.1b/Fregat-M | Meteor-M No.2-3 & others’, on board a Soyuz 2.1b/Fregat-M space rocket.

The launch took place on June 27, 2023, 11:34 a.m. from Cosmodrome Site 1S.
