On Friday, the Iranian telecommunications satellite established the Russian missile on Friday, which emphasized close ties between Russia and Iran.
The rocket was launched in accordance with the planning of the East Cosmos in the Russian Far East, with two Russian observation satellites of ionospheric observations (Ionosphere-M), the satellite of the Iranian telecommunications satellite Nakhid-2 and 17 smaller Russian satellites, which he put on certain orbits.
The head of the Iranian Space Service Hassan Salary said Two yearsThe field “Usually, satellites with a low transition (LEO) have a service life of five years and ten years of geo -orbits,” he said.
The launch takes place during the reinforcement of Iranian relations. Moscow and Tehran signed a “strategic cooperation” agreement in January, while Russia resolutely condemned the recent attacks of the United States and Israel in Iran.
Vladimir Putin left the likelihood that Russia will accept an intermediary for an agreement that will allow Iran to develop a peaceful nuclear program, while at the same time discovering Israeli safety problems.

The launch of the Nahid-2 came a few days before the re-launch of Iran’s nuclear negotiations with Great Britain, France and Germany in Constantinople and shortly after a test for a transfer in the Iranian satellite.
Russia-Iranian space cooperation: continuation of the Nakhid program
The launch of the Nahid-2 is the continuation of cooperation between Russia and Iran in the space sector. In November last year, Russia launched two Iranian satellites – their Kowsar And Hang– on behalf of the private Iranian space industry.
He preceded two more Russian Iranian satellite launches in 2022 and 2024. The satellite series Nahid (1 and 2) was designed by him. Iranian for telecommunication missions and manufactured Iranian Space Research InstituteThe field of energy for the work of Nahid-2 is provided through the solar batteries for the body of the satellite.
The development of Nahid-2 continued, despite the delays in launching Nakhid-1From the technical problems and difficulties of international coordination. Four ground stations were built in various parts of the country to support the Nahid-1 program.
Nahid-1 was originally planned to be launched in the summer of 2018 with Rocket Sefir-1Orbit 250-375 km, but the mission was canceled after technical damage before the beginning.
Iran announced that he was already at the design stage Nakhid-3a more complex telecommunication satellite, as part of a strategy for Samoaller for space technology and development Commercial and research applicationsField
