NOTE:
Above chart only includes active Gorizont, Express and GALS satellites.
Chart does not include Ekran or Raduga satellites. Stat numbers
designate C-band payloads and Loutch numbers
represent Ku-band payloads - both on the
same satellite. Gorizont names (numbers) are
often referred to by the flight launch number (in this chart
the primary number) and sometimes referred to by the Gorizont
sequence number (in this chart the number in parenthesis).
