COSMOS 2525 is a very little known Russian LEO satellite, unofficially being reported to be based around a new satellite bus developed by VNIIEM Corporation of Moscow.

On Mar 29, 2018 Russia launched the light Soyuz-2-1V rocket from Plesetsk.
Soyuz-2-1V is like a regular Soyuz but without the four large side strapon boosters. On its three previous launches it was combined with a Volga upper stage, but this time the bare 1V configuration was flown.
The payload was the EMKA - ′Experimental Small Spacecraft′, a small imaging satellite built by VNII Elektromekhaniki (VNIIEM). It was given the Kosmos-2525 cover name after being placed in a low 315 x 318 km sun-synchronous orbit.
