Rogozin called the timing of the start of modernization of the floating cosmodrome Sea Launch

The modernization of the Sea Launch floating cosmodrome may begin in two months, said Dmitry Rogozin, head of the Roscosmos state corporation.

According to Rogozin, Roskosmos expects to begin modernizing Sea Launch two months after all legal and organizational issues have been resolved.

Then, I think, a couple of months to resolve all organizational and legal issues and start modernizing the complex

- said the head of Roscosmos, adding that the standard Soyuz-5 launch vehicle will be used for launches from Sea Launch.



I think that we will use the standard Soyuz-5 rocket, because when these legs and the launch pad supports are reinforced, they will withstand the entire volume of the Soyuz-5 rocket with a full refueling

- he said.

Deputy Prime Minister Yuri Borisov announced that the Sea Launch floating cosmodrome will be restored at the Army-2020 forum. According to him, the floating spaceport is a unique structure and it would be foolish not to use it, letting it go for scrap. Borisov said that the restoration of the cosmodrome could cost 35 billion rubles.

The Sea Launch floating spaceport consists of the Odyssey floating launch platform and the command vessel. In total, 36 launches were made from the sea launch site, of which 33 were successful. In 2014, the last rocket was launched, as Russia stopped supplying missile components to Ukraine, including the RD-171 rocket engines.

At present, Sea Launch is located in the Russian Far East, the project has been frozen "until better times."

        On time ?
        How many tests have been carried out?
        Is the Vostochny cosmodrome completed?

        Launch sites for Soyuz-5 are planned at Baikonur, Plesetsk, Vostochny, and now from the Sea Launch. Aren't there too many spaceports for such a "successful" and "productive" space power?
        Sea Launch is of course a pity, but will we have so many launches to justify such expenses, because it will require both coastal infrastructure and considerable maintenance costs.
        How many launches are planned per year?
        Four ?
        Three ?
        Is it worth it for the sake of this?
        After all, everything for the start will have to be carried already in Primorye. From the Moscow region and Siberia. Yes, with such logistics, there can be no question of any commercial benefit. And for other things, there are plenty of existing spaceports.

          Deputy Defense Minister of Russia Alexei Krivoruchko: "deliveries to the Strategic Missile Forces will begin in 2021".

          Dmitry Rogozin, General Director of the State Corporation Roscosmos: “I personally control, I am engaged in details of the work that we are now doing to create a new strategic intercontinental missile complex Sarmat.

          Is the Vostochny cosmodrome completed?


          The Vostochny cosmodrome will be under construction until at least 2030. Now, ahead of schedule, the construction of the second stage of the cosmodrome is underway (commissioning in 2023) and the secondary infrastructure facilities of the first are being completed, which the disbanded Spetsstroymontazh did not manage to complete (commissioning by the middle of next year). Five launches of carrier rockets were carried out from the cosmodrome. This year the customer, represented by Arianspace, delayed the delivery of its spacecraft and the next launch from the Vostochny cosmodrome is scheduled for the end of this year.

          Are you pitifully trying to challenge the status of a space power in Russia? lol Well, well.

          As for the rest, Soyuz-5 is planned to be launched within the framework of the Baiterek project jointly with Kazakhstan from the 45th site of Baikonur, for this this site has been removed from the lease of Russia and transferred to Kazakhstan. Starting next year, Kazakhstan will modernize the site so that the first rocket can be launched from there in 2023.

          The creation of the Soyuz-5 launch complex at Vostochny is planned as part of the third stage of construction.

          Sea Start is a private company. And Filyov personally decides which rocket he will acquire for his cosmodrome.

            But what about the tests?
            Has there been at least one practical start to date?
            I'm not even talking about successful.
            A product of this level of complexity implies a sufficiently long test cycle to check and correct all defects, defects, identify all the features of operation and combat use.
            In Russia (and the RSFSR), combat missiles of this class have never been produced, especially the Makeev Design Bureau (only naval missiles with a starting weight of about 40 tons). How long did the Yuzhnoye design bureau take the P-36? How many trials, accidents, refinements, cures for diseases were there? Are you quoting an official who reports that in a year a missile of this level of complexity will ALREADY be put into service? belay
            Without a single practical launch at the moment? No.
            Even if we take into account that the "Sarmat" is just a new modification of the "Voevoda", this does not give any reason to hope for successful tests the first time. Moreover, it is created / recreated by a completely different design bureau, at completely different capacities and by other people.
            The entire series of test runs must be carried out, otherwise the product cannot be accepted!

      The main feature is the launch of American satellites from the territory of the United States (that is, there is no need to coordinate, customs) on cheap Russian rockets. We cross out this feature.

      Improving cast performance and orbits is now less relevant in this segment. That is, pulling up which thread Electron another 60-70 kg is not bad. To tighten up which Soyuz5 - 600-800 kg, well, this is not so decisive. Now satellites are getting lighter and lighter. If you just look at the launch map, then every second rocket is underload,

      Re-equipment is necessary, since the proven and reliable rocket remained in the Dnieper. And S7 even listed denyuzhki for the first batch according to a clever scheme. The result - the money was accepted, but they are not going to build missiles, sanctions and all this.

                I wrote above - this is how much the services for launching the Zenit rocket cost. Everything changes. laughing The services for launching the Angara-A5 rocket are now much cheaper than they were previously offered. Soyuz 5 will be at market price when its commercial launches begin.

    This, specifically for a donut, 5 years ago, there was such a conversation.
    I and cosmologists repeat, from a political point of view, floating means independent. No need to think about equeriblistics and entry into space, there are other laws, because of the states, we will simply be destroyed

    Damn, these two cans took all the berthing meters of the Slavyansk Shipyard. Looks like it is very bad with orders, since they allowed these two troughs to moor for an indefinite period

    Well, shall we believe the trampoline? I wonder how many times and how much the terms of modernization and commissioning will be shifted. Unfortunately, in recent years this has become the norm.

    And who will steal the money allocated for the commissioning of this cosmodrome, cut off his hands and hang them along the sides for decoration.

    because when you strengthen these paws, the support of the launch pad, they will withstand the entire volume of the Soyuz-5 rocket with full refueling

    You can withstand weight, you can weight. Well, this is not competently the gentleman responsible for the Cosmos. You are not a grandmother on the heap.
    Hire a preess attache, let him (she) speak. Because the words of Mr. Rogozin no longer cause anything except the Hand-Face reaction.

    When? -Yes, as in the song, I'll marry you, never yes yes yes. The country will not be able to cope with the Eastern one, and this is a bunch of dormitioners in the leadership.

      Parasites in the leadership, it seems to me, the state costs a hundred times more than all the cosmodromes put together sad

    Something I didn't understand - Sea Launch bought out S7. What does Rogozin and Roscosmos have to do with it ?! Or is it HSP - it buys an S7 type, but in fact everything goes to Roscosmos? Or am I missing something?
