1MV
The 1MV planetary probe (short for 1st generation Mars-Venus) is a designation for a common design used by early Soviet uncrewed probes to Mars and Venus.[1][2][3] It was standard practice of the Soviet space program to use standardized components as much as possible.

It was superseded by the 2MV family.
