The project "Dnepr" revive without the participation of Ukraine

Russia plans to return to using the Satan ICBM to launch spacecraft, reviving the Dnepr project without the participation of Ukrainian enterprises, reports RIA News.

The project "Dnepr" revive without the participation of Ukraine




According to an agency source in the rocket and space industry, the Ministry of Defense will soon begin to utilize Voyevod’s missiles (according to the NATO classification Satan), which will be replaced by the Sarmat ICBM.

Consideration is being given to the use of RS-20В missiles removed from combat duty under the conversion program of launches,
said the source.

He noted that we are talking about upgrading for space launches, "namely the PC-20В version, and not the PC-20B, which were previously used in the Dnepr project". At the same time, the Ukrainian side will not be involved in the project implementation (responsible for the missile control system).

According to the 2017 year, the 46 RS-20В missiles were in service. The PC-20B rocket left around 11 units.

There is no economic expediency in adapting the RS-20B for space launches due to the small number of remaining missiles, and the presence of about fifty RS-20B rockets suggests such expediency
added source.

Recall, until recently, the Dnepr launch vehicle, based on the RS-20B ICBM, was in operation. In total, between 1999 and 2015, the year 22 was committed, of which 21 was successful. Modernization of RS-20B missiles developed in Dnepropetrovsk (Ukraine) into the Dnepr launch vehicle was carried out by Kosmotras company. The launches were carried out from the Baikonur cosmodrome and from the Clear. The last launch was done in 2015.

      Hello Dima ! hi
      Yasny is a Russian spaceport located on the territory of the Dombarovsky Strategic Missile Forces positional area in the Yasnensky District of the Orenburg Region of Russia. It was used to launch spacecraft through the Dnepr launch vehicles. The Cosmodrome operator is Cosmotras international company.

            "According to 2017 data, 46 RS-20V missiles were in service. About 20 units remained of the RS-11B missiles"
            Perfectly! Just GLONASS will be brought to a level higher than JPS
            By 2020, GLONASS positioning accuracy is planned to be increased to 0,6 meters, with a further increase to 10 cm

            And the “first Sunday of this week” sounds more optimistic than the “last”.

    hi The most complete and structured about the characteristics and history of the creation of the rocket is stated on rbase.new-factoria.ru. It turns out that both the RS-20V and the mines for it were made according to the principle of preliminary assembly, that is, the missile was assembled (along with the launch capsule around it) right at the factory, until the stage of 100% readiness; when transporting to the dislocation area, it did not have only fuel and warheads. The mine structures were also assembled in advance, and then quickly and without problems were mounted on site. From the interesting point - that the rocket would not be damaged in the mine from the seismic effects of a close nuclear strike, the launch capsule would be amortized: below, for example, stood a giant rubber chamber filled with nitrogen.

    When Dnepr was launched together with Ukraine, it flew like a clock. This is from the Yasny launch base and when they tried to launch something from Baikonur themselves unsettled. The start was considered unsuccessful and this leads to some thoughts. It is a pity and such a project was a joint promise, but then a mess began in Ukraine and all the pots on the floor.
