COSMOS 2422 is classified as:

• Military

NORAD ID: 29260
Int'l Code: 2006-030A
Launch date: July 21, 2006
Source: Commonwealth of Independent States (former USSR) (CIS)
Launch site: PLESETSK MISSILE AND SPACE COMPLEX (PKMTR)
Decay date: 2019-11-23

Cosmos-2422 is deployed in an orbital plane that is located between those occupied by two other US-KS satellites on highly-elliptical orbits -- Cosmos-2388 and Cosmos-2393, both of which appear to be operational. This may indicate that the launch of Cosmos-2422 is supposed to upgrade the current constellation rather than replace one of the satellites.
