At November 16, the Angosat spacecraft built by Energia under a contract with the Ministry of Telecommunications and Information Technologies of the Republic of Angola has been delivered to the Baikonur launch site.

After the spacecraft is transported to the processing facility, the work to mate the Angosat SC with the upper stage will begin.

The launch of the Angosat communications satellite is scheduled for December 7.

Angosat is a spacecraft made by RSC Energia in the interests of the Republic of Angola will provide broadcast coverage in C- and Ku-bands over the territory of the Republic of Angola, as well as over the territory of the entire African continent. The Angosat project calls for constructing a communications satellite with a transponder, launching it into the geostationary orbit and building a round infrastructure for communications and TV broadcasting.
