It was launched aboard a Kosmos-2I 63SM rocket,[2] from Site 133/1 at Plesetsk. The launch occurred at 11:59:55 UTC on 16 September 1970.[3]
Orbit
Kosmos 362 was placed into a low Earth orbit with a perigee of 270 kilometres (170 mi), an apogee of 829 kilometres (515 mi), 71 degrees of inclination, and an orbital period of 95.6 minutes.[1] It decayed from orbit on 13 October 1971.[4]
