62

The cost of the launch of a Soyuz-2.1b launch vehicle with a spacecraft for the Russian Defense Ministry on Friday is 10 billion rubles, said the deputy head of Roscosmos, Anatoly Shilov, after successfully launching a military satellite from the Plesetsk cosmodrome.

"I will give a small secret, this launch is worth about 10 billion rubles," - said Shilov RIA "News».

According to him, the next such an apparatus for the Russian Defense Ministry is already in production and will be launched either in the 2013 year or at the beginning of the 2014 year.

“Either this year, or next, such a device will fly. The state gets eyes and ears. The industry undertakes to manufacture these devices regularly, ”the deputy head of Roskosmos noted.

The launch vehicle with a military satellite was launched from the 43 site of the Plesetsk cosmodrome at 22.37 Moscow time Friday. Launching into target orbit was successful. Immediately after taking control of the spacecraft was assigned a serial number "Cosmos-2486".

            Even if something was stolen from these 10 billion, so what? The task was set, the money allocated, the task solved, the goal achieved! What else do you need? There are many examples where money for the task assigned, and then no money, no result! So Roscosmos well done. The whole team, all enterprises and research departments worked as they should! Congratulations on a successful launch!

              here's the size of your "something" for example:
              "The representatives of the Ministry of Internal Affairs reported that the leadership of Roskosmos stole 6,5 billion rubles. This is one third of the total amount allocated from the budget for the creation of the domestic navigation system GLONASS."

            budget expenditures for the construction and launch of this satellite amounted to ~ 71 rubles / citizen of the Russian Federation per year.
            Two different approaches to one event:
            1) We launched a military satellite
            2) We launched a military satellite worth 10 billion rubles
            Reaction:
            1) OK! Probably the right thing. And the military now needs it!
            2) Get your hands on it! Yes, how many can folk billions in this haunted cosmos bullet !!!
            On what actually belolentochnye and the consciousness of the layman play excitement.
            -
            "Fuck! 10 lard! For one satellite! Why the hell did he give up? It's better to share such money on everyone !!!".

            And he is not aware that these billions were spent in one way or another on the creation of high technologies and jobs in the most important industry. Moreover, it is competitively capable in the world market. And theft is the conditions accompanying him, this is a topic of a different order.
            Otherwise, the hell to us satellites, rockets. tanks, planes and without them Russia and we will normally live in it, than to give our taxes to rogues from the military-industrial complex who are stealing everything, it’s better to build hospitals and schools with this money .. It’s certainly better, but unfortunately if you don’t know the meaning of the word Dropshot and him like plans, then you can completely rest in such confidence.

            some expert in the field of construction and paving pricing appeared on the radio. so, to the question why our prices are higher per km of roads, he answered: the cost of construction and materials is taken abroad, we have all the cost, which includes the development of design estimates, and most importantly - the transfer of communications. all of Moscow and other large cities of Russia are replete with sub-city communications, with the construction of roads, overpasses, etc., their transfer requires huge costs, which ultimately significantly affects the price. according to the data of this specialist, prices per 1 km of roads excluding these costs are equal to foreign.

        The Persona spacecraft platform is based on Resurs-DK spacecraft.
        The competition for the creation of a new Optoelectronic Intelligence Satellite, Persona, of the Russian Ministry of Defense held in 2000.

                  No one is trying to prove anything. They steal - a fact! The question is different. Example: you ordered a dish in a restaurant for 100 rubles. I gave the money away, you sit and wait ... And here two options emerge. First, they didn't bring you the dish, and they said that you either didn't pay at all, or paid, but it turned out that the chef was wrong, and the ingredients are more expensive, pay another 100 rubles, or some other reason. And the second option - the dish was brought to you, you ate it and was satisfied. So you do not care who then and where these 100 rubles. cases? In fact, these are the internal problems of the restaurant. So? Here is the same thing. The amount was indicated, the competition was held, the contracted companies completed the task, the state is satisfied. And how and where then these funds were cut, the state no longer cares. I am not saying that this is good and correct. Here the principle of "two evils" simply works, from which, as you know, you need to choose "the lesser". hi

                    Okay restaurant, so restaurant. The problem is that with the current scope of bribery and kickbacks, you run the risk of getting for your 100r. rotten soup, or soup in which they didn’t report something, or saved on potatoes by setting the year before last. And as a result, with an aggregate worth 10 lard, communications are suddenly lost and all the work of hundreds of people and loot burn up in the atmosphere. Remember Phobos, where counterfeit chips failed.

                    I repeat once again for URYakolok, I am not opposed to having the government plow money in the defense industry, we just need to stifle (completely crush it) corruption, which I remember every time on the way to work (on our city roads soon more than one satellite will be rolled up (at a cost), but there’s no sense am )

        The amount is normal. For comparison. An American military satellite is an extremely expensive pleasure. Its cost is from 500 million to 1,5 billion dollars, and it lives for a maximum of 5-7 years, excluding the cost of the carrier and the cost of launching.

      “Either this year, or next, such a device will fly. The state gets eyes and ears. The industry undertakes to manufacture these devices regularly, ”the deputy head of Roskosmos noted.
      This is the sadness "regularly", the trouble of our companions, in contrast to the bourgeois ones - their service life is 3-5 years and that's it. Vrazhin under 14 years of age serve on some space objects. Is it really impossible to create / copy / remove a normal battery :) ...

        After 5 years, the generation of devices will change. The satellite cannot be upgraded or upgraded.
        How many old but working mobile phones are lying around in your house (I already have a "museum").

      The news is both wonderful and surprising, in the sense that they "steal", but there is enough money for rearmament: ships are being built, new tanks are being created, and even space reconnaissance and target designation satellites are being built and launched on a modern element base - and all this is done with the hands and minds of our compatriots, which means that the country lives and develops, despite the fact that they steal, let the competent authorities do it, and alarmists are nervous because we have a country, a lot turns out.

        The news is good, but still less needs to be said, tales that the Cold War ended and we and our beloved overseas friends should really tell each other tales. Previously, no one spoke about the launches of such devices.

      You argue in an interesting way, "Well, the money left is not to steal, the main task is completed" here it is our mentality, let them steal this good thing, but the fact that your son has nowhere to play football and you don't know how these things are connected

      10 billion is the cost of the satellite itself plus the cost of the rocket plus the cost of launch. So the satellite itself costs less than 10 billion.

      “I will give out a little secret, this launch costs about 10 billion rubles,” Shilov told RIA Novosti.
      He would have to cut his language so that he would not give anything else. You can calculate a lot by the "ruble / byte" ratio.

      People, have you seen a satellite for a long time? Get off the ground, look at the sky! It is beautiful there! And every morning and every night you can see the satellites. And there are also stars that the founders of astronautics dreamed of achieving. We drowned in pragmatism, forgotten how to dream ((
