Seeking correction if I'm wrong...
There will not be a live web cast of this launch.
If tomorrow's launch is successful, the satellite will receive the designation Kosmos 2539. -

No roll out video yet?
Maybe there will be a short video or some pictures after the launch; maybe only from the archive again. -
