Subsequent orbital Rokot missions used upgraded Briz-KM upper stage. (Briz-KM also serves as core of Briz-M upper stage for Proton, with drop tanks added.) List of Rokot Failures Date Vehicle ID Payload Mass Site## Result# -------------------------------------------------------------------- 10/8/2005 Rokot/Briz KM 8 CryoSat 0.7 PL 133 [FTO] (1) -------------------------------------------------------------------- (1) Failed to orbit. On-board flight control failed to command second stage cutoff. Second stage failed to sep from Briz KM third stage. Stack fell into Arctic Ocean near North Pole.
