Kosmos 2403 ( Russian : Космос 2403 meaning Cosmos 2403 ) is one of a set of three Russian military satellites launched in 2003 as part of the GLONASS satellite navigation system. It was launched with Kosmos 2402 and Kosmos 2404 .
This satellite is a GLONASS satellite, also known as Uragan, and is numbered Uragan No. 795. [1]
Kosmos 2402 / 2403 / 2404 were launched from Site 81/24 at Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. A Proton-K carrier rocket with a Blok DM upper stage was used to perform the launch which took place at 17:42 UTC on 10 December 2003. The launch successfully placed the satellites into Medium Earth orbit . It subsequently received its Kosmos designation, and the International Designator 2003-056C.
