The remaining 12 transponders, with domestic coverage of the Russian Federation, are commercialised by the RSCC under the name Ekspress-AM22 . [2] [6]

Launch [ edit ]

Ekspress-AM22 was launched by Khrunichev State Research and Production Space Center , using a Proton-K / DM-02 launch vehicle . The launch took place at 23:00:00 UTC on 28 December 2003, from Site 200/39 at Baikonur Cosmodrome , Kazakhstan . [3] Successfully deployed into geostationary transfer orbit (GTO), Ekspress-AM22 raised itself into an operational geostationary orbit using its apogee motor .

Mission [ edit ]

The satellite can be received in Europe, Asia, the Middle East and the most part of Russia. The transfer takes place in the Ku-band . Since the launch of Ekspress-AM6 , Ekspress-AM22 has been moved to a new orbit at 80.0° East.
