2122 Pyatiletka, provisional designation 1971 XB, is a stony asteroid from the inner regions of the asteroid belt, approximately 11 kilometers in diameter.
The asteroid was discovered on 14 December 1971 by Soviet astronomer Tamara Smirnova at the Crimean Astrophysical Observatory in Nauchnyj, on the Crimean peninsula.[9] It was named for "pyatiletka", the first Five-Year Plan of the USSR.[2]
