Kosmos 2404 (Russian: Космос 2404 meaning Cosmos 2404) is one of a set of three Russian military satellites launched in 2003 as part of the GLONASS satellite navigation system. It was launched with Kosmos 2402 and Kosmos 2403.

This satellite is the first GLONASS-M satellite, also known as Uragan-M. It was assigned GLONASS-M No.11L number by the manufacturer[3] and 701 by the Ground Control.[4]

Kosmos 2402 / 2403 / 2404 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 17:42 UTC on 10 December 2003. The launch successfully placed the satellites into Medium Earth orbit. It subsequently received its Kosmos designation, and the International Designator 2003-056A. The United States Space Command assigned it the Satellite Catalog Number 28112.[1]

It was in the first orbital plane in orbital slot 6. It is no longer part of the GLONASS constellation.[5]·[6]
