RF FSI launched and adopted to control the spacecraft for military purposes – TASS

MOSCOW, December 13th. / TASS /. Aerospace forces of Russia carried from the Baikonur Cosmodrome launch vehicle “Proton-M” with the military spacecraft, brought the satellite into orbit and brought it to management, reported on Sunday Tass Office press service and information of the Russian Defense Ministry.

Disposed” Breeze-M “has been carried out by several inclusions propulsion in order to give the upper stage of pulses needed to slip it into orbit at an altitude of about 35 thous. km, specified in the management.

“After the withdrawal of the booster into orbit disposal experts of the Center of space control have information about him in the head catalog of space objects and proceeded to the analysis and processing of information about the new space object to taking it to support ground-based exploration of the Main Center of Space Space Forces videoconferencing environment “- added to the Defense Ministry.
