Kosmos 2464 (Russian: Космос 2464 meaning Cosmos 2464) is one of a set of three Russian military satellites launched in 2010 as part of the GLONASS satellite navigation system. It was launched with Kosmos 2465 and Kosmos 2466.

This satellite is a GLONASS-M satellite, also known as Uragan-M, and is numbered Uragan-M No. 736.[1][4]

Kosmos 2464/5/6 were launched from Site 81/24 at Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. A Proton-M carrier rocket with a Blok DM upper stage was used to perform the launch which took place at 05:49 UTC on 2 September 2010. The launch successfully placed the satellites into Medium Earth orbit. It subsequently received its Kosmos designation, and the international designator 2010-041C. The United States Space Command assigned it the Satellite Catalog Number 27139.[1][4]

It is in the second orbital plane of the GLONASS constellation, in orbital slot 9. It started operations on 4 October 2010.[5][6]
