Kosmos 695 (Russian: Космос 695 meaning Cosmos 695), also known as DS-P1-Yu No.73, was a Soviet satellite which was launched in 1974 as part of the Dnepropetrovsk Sputnik programme. It was a 400-kilogram (880 lb) spacecraft, which was built by the Yuzhnoye Design Bureau, and was used as a radar calibration target for anti-ballistic missile tests.[1]

A Kosmos-2I 63SM carrier rocket was used to launch Kosmos 695 from Site 133/1 of the Plesetsk Cosmodrome.[2] The launch occurred at 11:59:58 UTC on 20 November 1974, and resulted in the satellite successfully reaching low Earth orbit.[3] Upon reaching orbit, the satellite was assigned its Kosmos designation, and received the International Designator 1974-091A.[4] The North American Aerospace Defense Command assigned it the catalogue number 07538.

Kosmos 695 was the seventy-third of seventy nine DS-P1-Yu satellites to be launched,[1] and the sixty-sixth of seventy two to successfully reach orbit.[5] It was operated in an orbit with a perigee of 268 kilometres (167 mi), an apogee of 449 kilometres (279 mi), 70.9 degrees of inclination, and an orbital period of 91.7 minutes.[6] It remained in orbit until it decayed and reentered the atmosphere on 15 July 1975.[6]
