Cosmos 2380, 2381, and 2382 are the latest trio to join the current Russian fleet of GLONASS satellites. They were launched by a Proton-K rocket from Baikonur at 18:00 UT on 1 December 2001. These Cosmos series spacecraft have another model name also: two of them are called Uragan class and the third an enhanced Uragan-M class.
