It seems that some kind of Iranian satellite is among the accompanying small satellites that are planned to be launched from the Vostochny cosmodrome on February 29 along with the Russian hydrometeorological spacecraft Meteor-M.
It is stated that in addition to Meteor-M, 18 Russian and foreign companion satellites will be launched, and 17 of them are satellites produced by the private space company SPUTNIX, part of the Sitronics Group.
This leaves one foreign satellite, and in the photographs published by the Roscosmos State Corporation from the assembly of the Soyuz-2.1b launch vehicle with these satellites, the emblems of the Iranian Space Agency and the Iranian Space Research Center can be seen.
Today, February 26, the rocket was taken to the launch complex.
