The spacecraft weighed, and was built by the Yuzhnoye Design Office, and was used to conduct classified technology development experiments for the Soviet armed forces.
A Kosmos-2M 63S1M carrier rocket was used to launch Kosmos 95 into low Earth orbit. The launch took place from Site 86/1 at Kapustin Yar. The launch occurred at 05:31 GMT on 4 November 1965, and resulted in the successful insertion of the satellite into orbit. Upon reaching orbit, the satellite was assigned its Kosmos designation, and received the International Designator 1965-088A. The North American Air Defense Command assigned it the catalogue number 01706.
Kosmos 95 was the second of four DS-U2-V satellites to be launched. It was operated in an orbit with a perigee of, an apogee of, an inclination of 48.4°, and an orbital period of 91.7 minutes. On 18 January 1966, it decayed from orbit and reentered the atmosphere.
