Kosmos 2433 ( meaning Cosmos 2433) is one of a set of three Russian military satellites launched in 2007 as part of the GLONASS satellite navigation system. It was launched with Kosmos 2431 and Kosmos 2432.
This satellite is a GLONASS-M satellite, also known as Uragan-M, and is numbered Uragan-M No. 720.
Kosmos 2431 / 2432 / 2433 were launched from Site 81/24 at Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. A Proton-K carrier rocket with a Blok DM upper stage was used to perform the launch which took place at 07:35 UTC on 26 October 2007. The launch successfully placed the satellites into Medium Earth orbit. It subsequently received its Kosmos designation, and the International Designator 2007-052A. The United States Space Command assigned it the Satellite Catalog Number 32275.
It is part of the GLONASS constellation, in the third plane, orbital slot 19. It started operation on 25 November 2007.
