Russia has launched Cosmos 2361 which appears to be another EORSAT Naval recon satellite. Its SL-11 (=Tsyklon-2) rocket is also in orbit. Expect the Cosmos to be manoeuvred and the rocket to decay quickly. The following elsets are the only ones published so far - the line zero dimension/mag data are my uncertain guesses.
