MIET-AIS is a Russian 3U CubeSats with an technology mission developed by students and scientists of the Moscow Institute of Electronic Technology (MIET) will go into orbit within the framework of the SPACE-p project together with FASIE.

The main purpose of the payload is to receive signals from AIS transmitters installed on ships for the purpose of their subsequent analysis. The information obtained is necessary to prevent collisions of ships, control their movement and use the data in search and rescue operations.

The MIET satellite is also equipped with an experimental plasma propulsion system developed by MEPhI.

The spacecraft was created as part of a project on the OrbiCraft-Pro SXC3 satellite CubeSat platform of SPUTNIX (part of the Sitronics Group). The spacecraft has successfully been integrated with the Aerospace Capital launch container and is ready for launch.
