Tselina (rus. ''Целина'') is a Russian, formerly Soviet, military space-based radio surveillance system. It is capable of determining the exact location of radio-emitting objects and also their type, modes of operation, and how active they are. For instance, preparation for a military operation may raise the activity of the radio communications. Detection of these communications by a space-based surveillance system can provide early warning of this activity, warning that may be unavailable by other means. == Variants == Initially divided into "overview" (Tselina-O) and "detailed" (Tselina-D), since about 1980 the system has been integrated into a single satellite, Tselina-P, which is also known as Tselina-2. The system primarily focuses on the enemy radar equipment. Tselina has been numbered as part of the Kosmos series. In total 130 Tselina satellites have been launched. * Tselina-O satellites were launched using Kosmos-3M rockets. * Tselina-D used the Vostok-2M and later the Tsyklon-3. * Four upgraded Tselina-Ds, named Tselina-R, were also launched using the Tsyklon. * Tselina-2 satellites were designed for launch on Zenit-2 carrier rockets, however the first two launches used the larger Proton-K / DM-2 as the Zenit was still undergoing development. The most recent launch used the modernised Zenit-2M rocket. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tselina (satellite)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
