FT: Russian satellite in orbit behaves suspiciously

The Russian object of an undeclared assignment, launched into orbit in May 2014, behaves suspiciously and may be a "satellite killer", according to the online edition Ведомости with reference to the newspaper "Financial Times".

“In recent weeks, amateur astronomers have observed an extremely unusual orbital behavior of an 2014-28E object, the tracking number Norad 39765. This facility, launched by Russia in May 2014 along with the three telecommunications satellites of the Defense Ministry "Rodnik", moved closer to various Russian space objects, and over the weekend flew to the rocket in orbit that launched it into orbit, ”the newspaper writes.

The publication believes that the object may have a civilian purpose (for example, the inspection of satellites or the evacuation of space debris), and military. And since Russia did not announce his appointment, he “arouses suspicions of a certain kind” to observers.

The newspaper reminded readers of the Soviet military satellite "Almaz", the program "Fighter of satellites", collapsed after the collapse of the USSR, and suggested that "the backlog of them probably stayed in Russia." “In the context of cooling relations with the United States, the resumption of this program is visible,” the newspaper writes.

«Whatever it is, this (2014-28E object) gives the impression of an experiment. ”, - said the employee of the research center "Chatham House" Patricia Lewis. She did not rule out that the device "is capable of attacking enemy satellites with the help of kinetic projectiles, electronic warfare and cyber attacks."

Finally, and I’m still thinking when will Soviet technology be put into practice. The US Armed Forces are still tied to GPS, whether it be ground forces or air or naval forces.
There, if I’m not mistaken, 10 charges in each of 400 pieces of 5-10 mm in diameter each, the satellite is aimed at the enemy satellite and shoots 400 balls, which with high speed demolish the target.

Information:
Satellite Fighter (IC) - the Soviet anti-satellite weapons program, which led to the deployment of the EC-A system (И2П, 4Я11) in 1970 — 1980х years. Initially, it was supposed to launch the IC using the UR-200, but after the cessation of the development of the UR-200, Flying, Cyclone-2 and Cyclone-2A launch vehicles were used instead.

The project has been developed since 1960 at OKB-155 (?) Under the direction of A.I. Mikoyan. The idea of ​​the complex was proposed by V. Chelomey. For the first time in the world, a space defense system (PKO) was developed on the basis of maneuvering spacecraft equipped with homing heads and targets. It was intended to destroy artificial Earth satellites for military purposes, including maneuvering in orbit.

The complex included a highly maneuverable spacecraft "IS", RN, starting and technical positions, the main command and computing center.

In the first two trial launches of the IP spacecraft, the ИХNUMХП configuration was used, which served to test the engines and control systems of the device. The first launch was made on November 1 1 of the year, the second - on April 1963 of the year 12; the vehicles were designated Flight-1964 and Flight-1, respectively. After this, the interceptors IS-A or I2P and the targets IS-P or I2M were launched. The 2 targets of the IS-P were launched, after which they were replaced with cheaper satellites DS-P4-M “Tulip”, which were launched as part of the Dnepropetrovsk satellite program, and later replaced with “Lira”.

In 1978, the complex was put into service, and was on alert until 1993. The IC was launched into orbit by the Cyclone-2 carrier rocket, it ensured the interception of the target already on the second or subsequent orbits and hit the enemy spacecraft with a directed flow (explosion) of striking elements.

Space is considered by Americans as the most important militarily space - they have there communication satellites, and navigation satellites, and reconnaissance satellites, and combat control satellites. And other debris is enough, plus options for hypersonic shock drone flights are being worked out. The entire ground group is tightly tied at the moment in space, that neither type of weapon is amazing accuracy with the use of GPS. And if it is not, then what accuracy will there be, or will the weapon refuse to fire at all? Wherever you throw a wedge everywhere. Not played enough in star wars since the collapsed SOI. Therefore, they are very nervous when there is something unusual and incomprehensible to them in space, and especially if this incomprehensible belongs to Russia.

[Zordan]

Another thing is interesting if in a high orbit there will be a release of fraudulent electromagnetic radiation (an explosion of a small charge of small fractions, an electromagnetic generator) that will clear a space for a good hundred kilometers around or there will be several of them that then the Americans will do with this whole pile of high-precision iron ...

It seems that the satellite-antisatellite tests were successful and the presentation has now begun.

[APES]

A rebuttal of the view that the 2014-28E object that attracted the attention of the press is a model of space weapons.

“Firstly, Cosmos-2499, as it was later named in the Russian notice sent to the UN, can only be a mini-satellite with a mass of up to 50 kilograms - taking into account the mass of the payload that Rokot can bring to close to a circular orbit with an altitude of the order of 1,5 thousands of kilometers, and a mass of three not very small “Springs”.

Secondly, if traditional engines were used on it, taking into account the limited fuel reserves, he could perform a very small number of maneuvers ... The conclusion is: something new is being tested on the device, most likely a certain miniature engine. ”

Thirdly: there is an information message that appeared on the website of the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology: it stated that correction units based on a new generation of Hall type plasma engines, which were developed at the Keldysh Center, successfully started working in orbit. Perhaps this has something to do with the 2014-28E object?

[abrakadabre]

I think the best concept in this case is to quietly join all non-satellites and hang a small mine on them. Let's say 1-2 kg, taking into account the mass of the control circuits. Naturally remotely controlled. And let yourself fly as much as you like. If you get sick - undermining, selective or universal. And nothing needs to start in the conditions of the conflict that has begun. Everything is already there. And in order not to produce a large number of debris in orbit, the warhead is not a high-explosive action, which will destroy the target to shreds, but burn the carcass with a cumulative plop.

All own satellites, however, equip elements of self-defense against similar actions of others. For example, a small "canister" for several charges with the ability to target. An uninvited object approached at a distance of 5-20 m, did not pass the identification "friend or foe" - hold a handful of buckshot. Well, or a cumulative jet towards almost point-blank.

By the way, the Chinese intercepted their old satellite using their own interceptor satellite.

It is not necessary to demolish the satellite physically. A laser pulse is enough to simply disable the satellite’s optical sensors. Or local radio interference if it is a communications satellite.

In the 80s, we tested some kind of jammer, and so as not to interfere with anyone, the antenna was sent up. After a few hours, which was required for tuning, it went out of orbit and burned in dense layers of the atmosphere an American satellite, accidentally falling

[Roman 1977]

Seriously, the so-called we had killer satellites designed to destroy military spacecraft in orbits passing over the territory of the USSR. The system ensured the interception and defeat of target satellites in one or two turns of the interceptor's flight in descending or ascending turns. An interceptor weighing about 2,4 t is equipped with an orientation system, a powerful propulsion system with large fuel reserves, allowing for a wide maneuver in space. In front was an antenna of a homing radar head, behind it a cylindrical instrument compartment with systems providing communication and data exchange with a ground-based complex. To destroy the target, two warheads of fragmentation-cumulative action served. At launch, the warheads were folded and revealed only after entering orbit.
Actually, the interception could be carried out in a single-turn version: in this case, the IS itself reached the target and independently carried out its destruction without contacting the Earth and without adjusting the control program. This interception scheme is faster, but the probability of destroying the target is lower. In the two-turn version, a flight correction program was transmitted on board through the coil after the launch, which reduced the errors of launching the interceptor into the affected area.

Killer satellites destroyed victim satellites at altitudes from 250 to 1000 km, confirming the possibility of destroying all US military satellites except geostationary. In 1973, the complex was put into trial operation, and after a little refinement in 1978, it entered the arsenal of the Soviet Army.
It seems that they then abandoned them in favor of missiles launched from the MiG-31

Launch and "disaster" of a military satellite

Presumably, the Financial Times has in mind the launch of the Soyuz-2.1a launch vehicle with a military satellite from the Plesetsk cosmodrome. Start took place on May 6. The spacecraft, which received the serial number Cosmos-2495, was successfully put into orbit and taken into control by the Aerospace Defense Forces.

In mid-September, the strategic command of the US armed forces announced that the satellite exploded over America. East Kazakhstan oblast denied this statement, saying Washington’s message was “another attempt to find out the whereabouts of the Russian space object they lost.”

The representative of East Kazakhstan Oblast troops, Colonel Alexei Zolotukhin, emphasized that the main center for reconnaissance of the space situation conducts global monitoring not only of Russian satellites, but also of all space objects of artificial origin, including foreign ones, at altitudes from 120 thousand to 40 thousand km, with constant updating information about them. “And not“ with a high degree of certainty “, as in the strategic command of the US armed forces, but in fact in real time,” the military said.

HOW THE SATELLITE "COSMOS-2495" WORKS

The Cosmos-2495 satellite is part of the Cobalt-M specialized series of optical optical reconnaissance satellites, which are used for the surveillance system and for detailed photographing of the earth's surface and developed at TsSKB-Progress in Samara. The cost of one satellite in this series, for example, Cosmos-2480, is 1 billion rubles. Cobalt-M satellites are shooting on film. The resolution of the optics is up to 30 cm. Photos are delivered to Earth in special capsules, which, after landing, are delivered to the Space Intelligence Center for processing.

The satellite’s first launch of this series - Cosmos-2410 - took place on September 24, 2004.

In my opinion, the quality is higher on the film ...

[Major Yurik]

It is necessary that, when flying over the capitol, our satellite sends a report: I see the goal! There is a delay, it's too early! Then everything, the Abama will become white, except for the black ass, naturally.

[raven75]

Well flies and flies. Why so vigilant then. Our satellites have been flying since 1957, it's time to get used to it.

[Mentor]

So they are afraid of 57 years.

[Stinger]

Planes behave suspiciously, submarines behave suspiciously, tank columns behave suspiciously, Putin behaves suspiciously, now the satellites are suspicious too. One "Financial Times" behaves as usual. Easy and fun. But there are also suspicious bees. And this "w-w-w" for a reason. The bees suspect something.

[a.hamster55]

Yes, the tree itself will not buzz ...

[BOB044]

They’re afraid they don’t know what flies there. You will get a trindet on the nose. You might think that they only launch scientific satellites there.

A very helpful article! It should be reminded that we are launching not only the unfortunate Phobos and the hapless GLONASS, but also the things that lead the "progressive humanity" to the state of mindfulness.

The Cold War against Russia did not stop for a minute and the West, under the hunchback and the EBN, was very successful in this - we still have obvious enemies broadcasting without embarrassment from a variety of platforms. So you shouldn’t be surprised - they’ll write something else. But I want to believe that the great Soviet developments and groundwork have not been lost and will turn out to be very useful at the right time.

Reshetnev "correction blocks based on Hall-type plasma engines of a new generation, which were developed, tested and manufactured by specialists of the State Research Center FSUE" Keldysh Center ".
The creation of plasma engines was led by Professor Oleg Anatolyevich Gorshkov during his work at the State Research Center Federal State Unitary Enterprise “Keldysh Center”, being the head of the development department and the chief designer of the product (for 9,5 years from the start of the project to the manufacture of flight sets of engines, which coincided with his transition to a permanent job at MIPT).

Russia can bring the West to reason with the help of PSI technologies!
Evgeny CHERNYKH
To do this, it is urgent to resume the secret program of the domestic special services "Military Unit 10003"
The CIA and US military intelligence conducted the top-secret Stargate program from 1972 to 1995 to use psychics for combat purposes. Including to obtain information about strategic objects of the USSR using the so-called “far vision”. Sounds like the plot of a sci-fi blockbuster. But that’s how it was in reality. In the USSR in the same years there was a similar program in military extrasensory perception and parapsychology. At its origins stood Doctor of Medical Sciences, Colonel Vyacheslav Zvonikov.
- Vyacheslav Mikhailovich, let’s first define the term parapsychology. There is too much fog around him. Our scientists call this heresy; they even created a special commission to combat pseudoscience at the Academy of Sciences. Okay, we lapotniks. Have practical Yankees really been throwing dollars down the drain for 20 years through their secret Stargate?
- Parapsychology is a science that is practiced in many developed countries of the world. In the modern understanding, this is a study of the mechanisms of remote psychic influence on living and inanimate objects, reading information about their state. What people call telepathy, clairvoyance, telekinesis... This is not charlatanism, but a manifestation of a person’s special reserve capabilities. All people on planet Earth have them. As a rule, most of us are not even aware of our parapsychological abilities.
- What brought you to parapsychology?

"Whatever it is, it (object 2014-28E) feels like an experiment," said Chatham House research scientist Patricia Lewis. She did not rule out that the device “is capable of attacking enemy satellites using kinetic projectiles, electronic warfare and cyber attacks.”

ABOUT! The space Psaki has appeared!
How will the satellite compensate for the recoil of kinetic projectiles? Sawdust in her head? So you can’t even plug a cable into them for cyber attacks...

[rotmistr60]

She did not rule out that the device "is capable of attacking enemy satellites with the help of kinetic shells, electronic warfare and cyber attacks."

Everything that is done in Russia is suspicious and threatening to the West. Let them shake out their wallets. At one time, we were well played for money with the notorious American SDI (Star Wars).

[Throw]

“I didn’t rule it out” is idle talk. Then we can not exclude that it was a glitch of the Matrix. We eat red pills..)
But with SDI, we were not put on a dime, but were destined to be reduced and curtailed. I won’t write again, I’ll quote myself:

Lance SU 15 November 2014 19:40 | Does Russia have an antidote to US missile defense?
The antidote is contained in the system of strategic nuclear forces, which was laid down in the USSR.
Such properties of strategic missiles as individual breeding of blocks, maneuvering, false targets, etc. are important, but secondary in overcoming missile defense.
The main factor in the ABM breakthrough is the NUMBER of the guided blocks and their carriers. Modern and even far-reaching missile defense systems are fundamentally incapable of repelling a massive strike. This was proved back in the middle of the last century by our scientists. And it was "forgotten" at the end of the century by the "perestroika leadership", allegedly afraid of the "Star Wars" program (SDI).
Any missile defense / air defense system has a limited number of tracking and target designation channels, which can be increased to a certain limit, otherwise radio-electronic means will begin to interfere with one’s own work. The computational power of information processing is also limited. Intercepting several missile defense targets will work out with a probability close to 100%, a massive volley of missiles will cause an overload of the system in geometric dependence on the number of targets.
And this is just the beginning, then, with the real work of missile defense, when the destruction of targets begins, in the air and near space there will be such a porridge of blocks, missiles, their debris, false targets, and their debris that all ballistic computers in the world go crazy in an attempt to produce though would be target selection. Blocks fly in a "mess" on their own inertial guidance and the external "mess" does not affect them.

Therefore, all attempts to reduce the number of carriers and nuclear warheads, and other "peaceful" initiatives of politicians and others should be treated as sabotage and undermining the main factor of the effectiveness of strategic missile weapons.

[Sergey-8848]

Of all the American residents, about a million saw this, watched it to the end - 100 thousand, took note - about 50 thousand, perceived it correctly - 5 thousand, realized that this was a scam and another waste of money - 15-20 of the most thoughtful journalists. Everyone else is not interested in us. Neither good nor bad reports will be able to change the existing stereotype about us, about Russia, among those who, already in the third generation, live near the cisterns, but persistently talk about democracy.

[izGOI]

She did not rule out that the device “is capable of attacking enemy satellites using kinetic projectiles, electronic warfare and cyber attacks.”.
When someone gets hit or has a “cyber attack,” then let them start howling. But as long as they haven’t “offended” anyone, there’s no point in blaming them for anything.

[karal]

The West should still take a closer look at migratory birds and migrating animals from Russia; perhaps they are carriers of micro-bombs and micro-missiles to destroy the entire West (as stated in the interpretation of Barack Barakovich Obama).

[70BSN]

Anyone who doesn’t like what we do “RUSSIA” then go to hell.....Y!!!

[Gans1234]

Ez, they added me before)

In general, if we assume that this assumption about the purpose of the satellite is correct, then its approach to our other satellites can be characterized as testing. Those. his abilities and performance were tested on our satellites, and since he was close to 2-3, then very successfully.
On the other hand, this may be another nonsense about the threat of the Russians and some attempt to revive "star wars"
In any case, this article is a symptom and a very interesting one.

[Igor Send]

Suspicious behavior......The satellite shows from orbit "where the arm is bent, and then.....where the sleeve is sewn on!"

If the United States “missed” the launch of this satellite into orbit, then the experiment was a success.

"Western space agencies are also closely monitoring the mysterious object launched into space in May by the Russian military. Analyzing the movements of Object 2014−28E, experts express fears that Russia has revived the Soviet Sputnik Destroyer program."

“Firstly, Kosmos-2499, as it was later called in a Russian notice sent to the UN, can only be a mini-satellite with a mass of up to 50 kilograms - taking into account the mass of the payload that Rokot is capable of launching to a close to circular orbit with an altitude of about 1,5 thousand kilometers, and the mass of three not at all small “Springs”. Secondly, if it used traditional engines, given the limited fuel reserves, it could perform a very small number of maneuvers... The conclusion suggests itself: something new is being tested on the device, most likely some kind of miniature engine.”
