The launch campaign contract is for two launches, the other for a Raduga-1M (see here). Unlike for Raduga-1M it does not include preparation of the satellite, and cost is lower.

I wonder how they squeeze this one into May with Express-AM8 slipping into mid-May and there's an ILS launch late that month too...
EDIT: Looks like Express-AM8 may be slipping into June which explains the date: http://ria.ru/science/20150402/1056104608.html

Presume this will slip again with Mexsat-1 now penciled in for the 15th. Perhaps Inmarsat-5 F3 will end up launching before this one to keep ILS on schedule.

Is this launch the last of the "phase 1" Proton-M/Briz-M? It looks like it from the
Proton-K and -M/Briz-M page on Gunter's Space Page.

Both Phase I and Phase III have remained in use in parallel, and soon to be introduced is a Phase IV but evidence suggests at least another twenty Phase III. Proton with serial number 53536 was damaged during transportation to Baikonur, probably features RD-275 engines, and is now outside of warranty period. From what Anik has uncovered the long serial number of this rocket is 4924837975; the only 97x serial number batch production date 2013, just one?

Are there any further Garpun launches expected in future? (This is the second Garpun launch.)
Would not a three-satellite GEO constellation provide global coverage, especially to communicate with assets in LEO?

Garpun is a replacement for the retired satellites in the Potok series. Although three locations were registered for Potok, only two were ever used; 80 deg E and 346.5 deg E. I would not be surprised if the same applied to the Garpun series - however many satellites are actually launched. Do we know how many satellites are being ordered?

Garpun-1 (Kosmos-2473) is at 80°E; so if Phillip is right we could expect Garpun-2 to go to 13.5°W

Or #2 goes to 80 deg E and then #1 relocated to 346.5 deg E. (I never think in terms of deg W!) This is what happened on some of the earlier missions: 80 deg E seems to be the "prime location".

So, perhaps the Garpun system is a Russian analog in coverage to the original, operational TDRS system?
(TDRS East and TDRS West, with a Zone of Exclusion on the far side of the Earth from the continental USA) analog to
("Garpun East" and "Garpun West," with a ZOE on the far side of the Earth from Russia)
EDIT: Thank you to Phillip, for the Potok information, and to input.

Three Potok locations were registered with the ITU:
Potok-1 346.5 deg E
Potok-2 80.0 deg E
Potok-3 192.0 deg E
Potok-3 was never actually used.
