The Russian constellation of civilian and double-use satellites has expanded by 7 percent during the outgoing year, Russia's state space agency Roscosmos said in a yearly review of achievements.


"The Russian orbital constellation for social-economic, scientific and navigation purposes amounted to 99 spacecraft," the review read.


In 2019, the Russian orbital constellation included 92 civilian and double-use satellites.


Russia also has a constellation of military satellites, which counted 163 last year, but the review provided no update on this.
