2.03

Time spent in space none

2.03 is the designation of the fifth[1] Soviet/Russian space shuttle orbiter to be produced as part of the Buran programme. It carried the GRAU index serial number "11F35 K5" and is - depending on the source - also known as "OK-2K3", "Orbiter K5", "OK 2.03" or "Shuttle 2.03". It was never officially named.

2.03 was a second series shuttle orbiter, as shown by the '2' in its number. Construction of 2.03 was barely underway[2] when the entire Soviet shuttle program was halted in 1993, and as what parts of it had been built were dismantled shortly afterwards. Nothing remained of it by 1995.
