[FPSPACE] Looking for TKS Launch Images

[kosmos327 at aol.com]

Hello All!

I'm looking for any images of the launch preparations or launches of null's 1, 2, &3 (Cosmos's 929, 1267, & 1443 respectively). I've seen film footage and various images of the Dual VA launches which have been erroneously labeled as null. Assumably the early null launch shrouds would be white ("Polyus" was the first to use the black carbon based shroud), but there would be a?significant difference in the diameter of the null launch shroud. Unlike the launch of the Dual VA's (or LVI) the diameter of the?TKS launch shroud was wider than the Proton carrier rocket.

I am also curious if the VA's launched?on?TKS 1, 2, and (or) 3 had the Launch Escape System installed.

As always, any help from members of this scholastic group (and especially our Russian colleagues) would be greatly appreciated!

Best Regards,

David L. Rickman
