Re-entered 28 Aug 1976

DS-P1-I No. 14L (NORAD 7347, COSPAR 1974-047A) was a SU satellite that re-entered Earth's atmosphere on 28 Aug 1976, launched on 26 Jun 1974 on the DS-P1-I No. 14 mission. It was operated by PVO as part of the DS-P1-I programme. The spacecraft was built by YUZH on the DS-P1 bus, with a mass of 200 kg. Like most satellites in low orbits, it was gradually slowed by atmospheric drag until re-entry.
