Summary
Strela-1M 9-16 launched on a Soviet Space Program Kosmos-3M (11K65M) from 132/1 (132L), Plesetsk Cosmodrome, Russian Federation on May 7, 1971. It was Soviet Space Program's 569th launch, 28th this year and humanity's 1,216th orbital launch attempt. It was the 36th Kosmos-3M (11K65M) flight and the 6th this year. The payload was bound for low Earth orbit (LEO). Kosmos-411, one of 9 catalogued objects, reached a 1,324 × 1,498 km orbit inclined 74.0°. 9 objects from this launch are catalogued, 8 of them payloads.
