Cosmos 2544, a GLONASS-M satellite, is part of the generation that spent over a decade restoring Russia's navigation system to full global strength after its catastrophic 1990s collapse — a program eventually built into over 50 satellites across two decades before GLONASS-K and K2 began taking over new constellation launches entirely.
