Still, not all of our special mission satellites are in orbit ..
In Soviet times, I remember almost every month they launched "Cosmos-1334 ... etc." and in small print so modestly reported in Pravda.
Nothing will increase the grouping .. It happens, the main thing is not the number, but the quality .. As we at Roscosmos say "And one satellite in space is a warrior, if everything is created correctly and compactly"

Under the USSR, we had our own element base, which our "partners" helped us to cut during the construction of democracy. And now more than half of the launches depend on the will of the "partner"

Well, they’re kind of trying to fight this and we have a foundation since the times of the USSR .. That's just the specialists die, without waiting for the financing of their projects .. And the youth will learn a little and knock down the bastards .. (or rather they are simply pulled out of the country)

The lion's share of the production of the element base fell off with the collapse of the USSR, the Baltic states, Ukraine, Armenia, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, there were plants everywhere and they did good ERI. And now somehow we restore, we build anew at ourselves.

This is not young people coming down from the country, it is our goons who do not want to pay money. Everyone hopes for a foundation from the time of the USSR, but invests in yachts

That is why it is necessary to abandon degradation capitalism and develop socialism,
and only under (socialism) does the path to space open and not like no earlier, no matter who claims ...

[Bookcase]

Both capitalism and socialism are both impasse for the development of society. You need something that purposefully develops a personality. For example, elitism. But this is difficult, as this requires a completely new upbringing and education. To take from socialism is the desire to live for society, but to throw away the desire is to be like everyone else. From capitalism to take the desire - to improve and be a person, but to throw away the desire - to have the most.

Thank God, everything went well, I remember these Breezes spoiled the nerves at the launches, referred to the Ukrainian origin of some components. Maybe they’ve already started to set everything up?

Pah-pah - so far all is well with "Plesetsk". Maybe because this is a closed military cosmodrome and no one outside is running around there?

There is no EMNIP, there are still Ukrainian components, as well as the control system of the "Rokot"

30.08.2019/2/13 - Geo-IK-XNUMX No. XNUMXL at Rokot / Breeze-KM.

All launches are successful

In general, in 2019, 16 successful launches of ILV were completed.

there it seems
The management system was developed by Kharkov-based NPO Elektropribor (in 15 they were banned from exporting to the Russian Federation), although it is interesting to know who these systems were exported to ... they are only to Roar ...
Surely how Turboatom and MC were "exported to Southeast Asia ... and then how they turned out, no one knows ..
there was import substitution

On May 25, 2019, the media reported that the Khrunichev Center estimated the creation of Rokot-2 with Russian components at 3,4 billion rubles. In particular, the development of the Russian control system will require 690 million rubles, the creation of the Briz-KM-2 upper stage and preparation of production for its manufacture - 1,45 billion rubles, the modernization of the technical and launch complexes at the Plesetsk cosmodrome - 450 million rubles, preparation and the first launch - 750 million rubles.

the control system once crashed (EU satellite) in 2005.

Thus, the farewell to "Rokot" went on as usual.

“Within the framework of the Ministry of Defense, we have completed the operation of the Rokot missile system, but we will still have one launch within the framework of the Russian space agency,” says Nikolai Nestechuk, head of the 1st State Test Cosmodrome of the Russian Defense Ministry.
The Rokot launch vehicle has a high reliability coefficient. Twenty-eight out of thirty launches went smoothly under any weather conditions, and only two are considered partially successful.

[E.S.]

That’s why I love space - because the race of nanometers doesn’t make sense there! You can improve on the earth to lawlessness, reducing topological standards, but you can’t throw it into space for a long time.
Therefore, an old fab bought for 3 kopecks suddenly becomes relevant right now

I apologize. I looked at the wrong line in the table. Of course, not in Plesetsk, but in Baikonur. I was "bad" from Plesetsk in 2015, later, as far as I remember, "bad" was not
