In September/October 1979 three crews were formed for flights TKS-2 and TKS-3. On 20-28 November 1979 GKNII conduced state ground trials test of the TKS using two crews. Many problems were uncovered requiring rework. But in December 1981 Ustinov finally killed Chelomei's plans for manned TKS flights. The TKS training group was dissolved and TKS-2 flew unmanned to Salyut 7 as Cosmos 1443.
