Summary
Uragan 66 to 68 launched on a Khrunichev State Research and Production Space Center Proton K/DM-2 from 200/39 (200L), Baikonur Cosmodrome, Republic of Kazakhstan on July 24, 1995. It was Khrunichev State Research and Production Space Center's 30th launch, 3rd this year and humanity's 4,002nd orbital launch attempt. It was the 81st Proton K/DM-2 flight and the 2nd this year. The payload was bound for Medium Earth Orbit (MEO). Kosmos-2316, one of 10 catalogued objects, reached a 19,108 × 19,142 km orbit inclined 64.9°. 10 objects from this launch are catalogued, 3 of them payloads.
