Previous Nadezhda satellites were in a 1000km/83deg orbit: Nadezhda 1: 89-50A Nadezhda 2: 90-17A Nadezhda 3: 91-19A Nadezhda 4: 94-41A Nadezhda 5: 98-72A Is the newest Nadezhda of similar design(Tsikada, cospas/sarsat) as the previous ones and why this change into(sunsynchronous) orbit ? There has never been a sunsynchronous launch for the Kosmos 3M rocket as well, I believe.
