GLONASS-M satellite delivered for launch

Another GLONASS-M satellite, designed and built by a team of Information Satellite Systems – Reshetnev Company, has been delivered to the Plesetsk cosmodrome.

Accompanied by the company’s technical team and housed in a dedicated high-technology container, it was shipped to the Yemelyanovo Airport of Krasnoyarsk and then flew to the Plesetsk cosmodrome aboard a cargo aircraft IL-76.

At the cosmodrome, ISS-Reshetnev technicians will begin preparing the satellite for its launch, which is expected to take place in late May.
