5316 Filatov, provisional designation 1982 UB7, is a carbonaceous asteroid and potentially slow rotator from the outer region of the asteroid belt, approximately 30 kilometers in diameter.

The asteroid was discovered on 21 October 1982, by Russian astronomer Lyudmila Karachkina at the Crimean Astrophysical Observatory in Nauchnij on the Crimean peninsula.[7] It was later named for surgeon Vladimir Filatov.[2]

Orbit and classification

Filatov orbits the Sun in the outer main-belt at a distance of 3.1–3.2 AU once every 5 years and 7 months (2,050 days). Its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.02 and an inclination of 15° with respect to the ecliptic.[1] The body's observation arc begins at Nauchnij, 2 days after its official discovery observation.[7]
