It has a launch mass of 2300 kilograms, and was first launched on September 12, 2007, on the Proton launch system. The satellite was later launched two more times as Globus-M12 and Globus M-13 from 2010 to 2013. It was decommissioned in 2013 when they did not need to make any more communication satellites.
