KH-7 17 was launched on 1965 Apr 28 by Atlas Agena D from Vandenberg.
Four debris objects, 1965-31C, D, E and F, were cataloged in low orbit together with the payload. One of them may be the Agena stage. In addition, the Agena deployed a subsatellite 1965-31B, together with an associated debris object 1965-31G.
Archival data is not available for the payload but there is data for fragments 1965-31E and F. Fragments C and D have no elements even in the SATCAT.
