Kosmos-1408 was part of the
Tselina-D system. It had a mass of around 1,750 kg (3,860 lb), and a radius of around 2.5 m (8 ft 2 in). It is thought to have replaced Kosmos-1378 in the Tselina system, since it was launched into a similar orbital plane.

Department accused Russia of having targeted Kosmos 1408 during an anti-satellite weapon test, using a ground-based missile against their own defunct satellite, saying that it was "dangerous and irresponsible". On 15 November the Russian foreign minister,
