Resurs-P No.2{{cite web|url=http://www.russianspaceweb.com/resurs_p.html|title=Resurs-P remote-sensing satellite|work=RussianSpaceWeb|first=Anatoly|last=Zak|accessdate=26 December 2014}} is a Russian commercial Earth observation satellite capable of acquiring high-resolution imagery (resolution up to 1.0 m). The spacecraft will be operated by Roscosmos along with the Resurs-P No.1 satellite.
The satellite is designed for multi-spectral remote sensing of the Earth's surface aimed at acquiring high-quality visible images in near real-time as well as on-line data delivery via radio link and providing a wide range of consumers with value-added processed data.
Additionally the satellite carries the Nuklon high-energy particle detector developed by the Moscow State University for detecting cosmic radiation.
