Russian term or phrase: обслуживаемый космический аппарат технологического назначения
"Обслуживаемый" - в словаре я нашел только "attended", но как-то не по сердцу мне этот перевод: ведь не стоит (летит) же кто-то рядом с этим аппаратом в открытом космосе! Скорее, подразумевается, что его можно периодически обслуживать! Может быть, "maintainable"?

serviceable
Explanation:
Many sources, including the one below, are found in Google under Hubble space telescope and serviceable.

. The Hubble Space Telescope (HST) is the realisation of this dream. A joint venture between NASA and the European Space Agency (ESA), HST represents the first long-term serviceable orbiting observatory for the benefit of the international astronomical community - the flagship of NASA's Great Observatories program. Since its launch by the space shuttle Atlantis in April 1990 Hubble has returned stunning views of the planets - from the frigid far-flung worlds of Pluto and Charon, to our planetary neighbours, Venus and Mars.

Спасибо всем! Я тоже вначале подумал про "serviceable", но меня смутили значения вроде "полезный" или "исправный".

  -> Thank you, Rus!

agree  David Mitchell: I think that's appropriate to almost any scale of system, and certainly is best if the asker thinks 'manned' to be untenable...
3 hrs
  -> Thanks, David! You're right - the space telescope is not manned, but it is serviced by man, as was the case just most recently.

agree  Natalia Bearden: I'd go with this one (compare www.rosaviakosmos.ru/cp1251/macos.html and www.rosaviakosmos.ru/english/e_macos.html) Must have smth to do with the spacecraft's longer life/reusability
