Kazakhstan finally abandoned the Russian missile in favor of the Ukrainian

152
Kazakhstan finally abandoned the Russian missile in favor of the UkrainianKazakhstan made the final choice in favor of the Ukrainian launch vehicle Zenit for its space program, abandoning the Russian Angara, the newspaper Kapital reported. Earlier, "New Region" has already reported such an opportunity with reference to the Ukrainian State Space Agency. Yesterday, final agreements were reached between Kazakhs and Ukrainians, and official documents will be signed in mid-October.

“The final decision was made to create a complex at Zenit. This means that the project will be implemented over the next few years, it is faster than on the basis of the Russian Angara rocket, ”said advisor to the chairman of the Ukrainian space agency Edward Kuznetsov.

The Kazakh-Russian project “Baiterek” in question has been implemented since the middle of the last decade. It provides for the creation of a new-generation rocket complex based on the infrastructure of the Kazakh Baikonur cosmodrome. Initially it was assumed that it would be sold under the Russian Angara missile. The first launch from the new site was scheduled for 2012 year, but did not take place.

There are several reasons why Kazakhstan preferred Ukrainian missiles. Firstly, this should reduce the cost of the Baytarek project, the cost of which has already reached $ 2 billion. Secondly, Kazakhstan allegedly decided to speed up negotiations on the use of Zenith after the crash of the Russian Proton-M rocket at the Baikonur cosmodrome, which happened 2 July 2013 of the year.

At the same time, another possible version is being promoted in Ukraine. According to the deputy of the Verkhovna Rada, Anatoly Kinakh, the refusal of the Angara may indicate Russia's unwillingness to share it with Kazakhstan, since it can be launched independently at the Vostochny cosmodrome in the Far East under construction.

    Here we beat ourselves with low-quality rockets. and then we say that everything is against us. Everything is right. Kazakhstan is doing what for does it need a partner where not a start is an accident or some abnormal cases.

      "It goes to the right - the song starts, to the left - it says fairy tales ..." .. Teach materiel. Take a closer look ... Example: "How RosKosmos lagged behind Nasa" And so, let's sum up the intermediate result. For 5 incomplete years, Russia made 156 official launches of which 8 were failed. During the same period, the United States made 90 launches of which 3 failed. With a gap of 66 starts, we have 5 more accidents. If we look at the ratio, without recalculating it into a monetary equivalent, then we are slightly inferior, however, if we take into account the fact that the flight of an American rocket costs an order of magnitude, then the ratio of losses can easily change to the completely opposite. Unfortunately, I cannot afford to spend the whole day and calculate the exact amounts, and therefore, in terms of launches, it is possible, with a superficial assessment, to agree on a draw.

      At the same time, I dare say that rocket science is a very, very high-tech industry, where no one is immune from minor mistakes, and those, in turn, lead to very sad consequences. So, for example, from 5 shuttles + 1 prototype, 2 shuttles and the prototype proper were killed. This is despite the fact that their launches were often delayed and everything was verified and checked hundreds of times. http://shukalov.com/%D0%BA%D0%B0%D0%BA-%D1%80%D0%BE%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%BE%D1%81%D0%B

        By the way, Wikipedia is about Zenit.
        As of February 2, 2013, 77 launches were carried out [9], of which:

        66 successful
        4 partially successful
        9 unsuccessful

        This is much worse than Russian missiles.

        The whole problem is that the Russian Federation and the Republic of Kazakhstan initially agreed that we (Kazakhstan) are building a launch pad for any version of the Angara, from light to heavy. But Russia "cheated" on us - in the end it offered only an easy version of the Angara. Sorry, but that's not what we agreed on.
        This is the main reason. And if the author was well engaged in the study of this issue, then it would have surfaced immediately.
        This is not the first time that Russia has come along with us like that. hi

          Nobody cheated anyone. Baiterek under the Angara was obeshed when there was still no decision on the East. And "Vostochny" was needed when the Kazakh bosses began to remind someone of whose Baikonur, then we allow the launch of the Proton, but we do not allow it - no complaints, your land is your right. So they decided to build Vostochny, a launching complex for Angara, the infrastructure is different, there is simply not enough strength for the same colossus at Baikonur, so they refused, and there is no point in duplicating, and the system has not yet been worked out, if something goes wrong twice ... So it's good that you agreed with Ukraine, Zenith is still a proven rocket.

            Victor, good evening! Sorry, I didn't want to throw a "stone into the neighbor's garden". I have just been following the situation at Baikonir for a long time. The fact is that the agreement on Baiterek was reached at the end of 2004. And Kazakhstan allocated an interest-free loan for this - in short, "got". Read here. http://news.74mail.ru/news.php?news_id=409258.
            So the whole point was to replace the "dirty" Proton with a "clean" hangar. Another emergency with Proton shows that "not everything is in order" with her. And the permission of ty has nothing to do with it - as in aviation, after an emergency with some "product", a ban is put on flights of this type of product until it is completely clear what is called. And in the Russian media this is brought up as a veto of Kazakhstan. Even in the most difficult years, Baikonur always worked and not without the help of Kazakhstan. hi

            You do not understand anything. We proposed together - costs and risks are shared together. We are the launch complex, you are rocket. What do you see bad for Russia? For Kazakhstan, in Baikonur, the main next position is that the city and the spaceport should live, and not become a ghost town and a host of giant reinforced concrete structures. We are ready to completely abandon the lease (for which our people pay in Russia, etc., the budget does not see any living money, in short) and take on part of the financial costs (preferably such that it can be paid off).

              Dear Kasym, Russia has enough territory, although it is not as deserted as the steppes of Kazakhstan, to have its own new cosmodrome with a new universal launch complex for Angara, with no approvals; - diplomatic, environmental, economic, social, etc. etc., everything is at home and no problems.

If this "scam" continues on the part of the main ally, then despite this, we will not find new partners in the Union. Here's the main thing - "you have to answer for the market." If we treat each other more attentively and fulfill our obligations, then only in this case can we create a new Commonwealth of countries. There is NO other way.
                In my comments, I focused on the real reason, and not as the author: "if this is how it is, or maybe this is how it is." In short, the author is ready to mix Kazakhstan with dirt, but does not notice "podlyanka" from Russia - we are so white and fluffy. This is what revolts. hi

                  A good example of how the occupation system planted by the Anglo-Saxons in the 90s works. Putin, and Nazarbayev, has to carry out manual control, overcoming the resistance of the system.
                  On Friday, at a meeting in Birobidzhan on eliminating the effects of flooding in the Far East, Russian President Vladimir Putin staged a spree to officials, writes Tengrinews.kz with reference to the Russia-24 TV channel.

                  Speaking about the situation in temporary accommodation centers in the Jewish Autonomous Region, Putin said: “The situation there is not the best. People write to me that the living conditions there are not very good, they feed with a bandanda, children do not eat. Am I supposed to put someone on a sack to start training? ”

So, for me, those moves in relations with the former Soviet republics undertaken by my country are completely understandable and acceptable.

                    Oleg, I completely agree - you can’t return the previous Union. And it wasn’t necessary when the construction of a city bath was decided in Moscow for several years. Agree, this is not correct.
                    I am also sympathetic to the interests of the Russian Federation. And in this case they are observed. You will build the Hangar anyway. And we at our own expense launch pad. Start it even from Vostochny, even from Baikonyr - what is the interest of Russia in? Moreover, as some experts say, you can throw more useful load from Baikonyra!
                    I think so, if we hit the mark and signed some agreements, then this should be done. Only in this way we will find new allies. Russia should not put Kazakhstan on the same level, for example, with Algeria. Here with the same Angara and Bayterek. The agreements were signed in 2004, already 9 years have passed. Time and money wasted. If we agreed on Zenith right away, then believe me, what would be required from Kazakhstan would have been done. That is, Kazakhstan, as an ally and neighbor, suffered. Even if we are talking about some 1 or 2 billion greenbacks, this is "not a question" for Kazakhstan, as well as for the Russian Federation.
                    "There is nothing further than YESTERDAY and there is nothing closer than TOMORROW." We need to think about the future, now is the time to act, and not remember history with a cup of tea. Believe me, in Kazakhstan they don't think much about any insults (Holodomor or repressions, or who gave whom and how much). I think if we take into account the interests of each other, the sooner we will find allies. We, at the moment, and our relations (RF, RB and RK) are now under great interest from the whole world, and not just our neighbors. "Will it be possible to create a new union on the ruins of the old? Yes or no?" The answer to this question will predetermine the geopolitics, geography and history of the next century. hi

              Ksym! Greetings! We already kind of discussed with you the reasons for all these points earlier. Yes, Baikonur and Baiterek are mostly right. It turned out to be nice for efficient managers from Roscosmos as always. Yes, and the appointment of Shuvalov in the Interfax is essentially a quiet discharge of the Baiterek project, in my opinion. We made a bet on the East. Recently, I just returned from Uglegorsk ... Everything goes according to plan, although as always with overcoming the many problems that we ourselves create out of the blue. Sooner or later, Russia will leave Baikonur, it’s real and you need to be prepared for this. And here is only one way - to develop joint projects with the maximum involvement of interested countries, including Russia, because you won’t be able to pull Baikonur alone.
              There is an official document according to which our joint relations are built. All other "news" like this is just information slag. And the document is called

              The joint action plan of Kazakhstan and Russia for 2013-2015

              In particular, in space there in black and white the following
              15. Continue work on the implementation of the Baiterek project on the basis of the Zenit launch vehicle at the Baikonur Cosmodrome.
              Performers:
              from the Kazakhstan side - the National Space Agency of the Republic of Kazakhstan;
              on the Russian side, the Federal Space Agency. Terms of implementation: 2013-2015.
              17. To develop and prepare for signing a bilateral agreement governing the procedure for joint use of the Baikonur Cosmodrome.
              Performers:
              from the Kazakhstan side - the National Space Agency of the Republic of Kazakhstan;
              on the Russian side, the Federal Space Agency. Terms of implementation: 2013.
              The joint action plan of Kazakhstan and Russia for 2013-2015 was approved by the President of the Republic of Kazakhstan N.A. Nazarbayev and President of the Russian Federation V.V. Putin December 19, 2012, Moscow


              As for the further fate of Baiterek, in July of this year, a trilateral protocol was signed by Musabaev, Popovkin and Alekseev on this project and its implementation, that is, on the transition to the Zenit launch vehicle. At the moment, the space agency of Ukraine should send its proposals to Kazkosmos and Roskosmos regarding further cooperation on the Baiterek project. Only after that will proper decisions be madeSo the word is in Ukraine

                Stanislav, hello! Glad to see. I do not believe that Russia will leave Baikonyr - such a country needs more than one cosmodrome. I know that you are in the midst of "space" problems, therefore, just like YOU, I would like to see the intelligible position of Roscosmos on Baikonir, and better the program for the development of the cosmodrome. Our authorities, in my opinion, are ready to take on certain financial costs and risks. Russia should take advantage of this.
                Yes, Stanislav, I am in charge of these agreements. Therefore, I say that Russia will not leave the cosmodrome - it is simply not profitable.
                By the way, I recently visited Ukraine (Kiev). The problems are the same as for us. But the main difference is that the government does not have the same support as in Russia or in Russia (everyone spits). "What kind of EU, what kind of There. Union, if they wave their fists at us in the Rada, it's a shame ?! They can't share power, they have no time for people!" Something like this .

About ten years ago, it was decided to expand the throughput capacity of the CPC pipeline (from western Kazakhstan to the Black Sea) twice between the Russian Federation and the Republic of Kazakhstan. Russia throughout this time did not implement this project. And y this year, industrial production begins on Kashagan. Where to put it - did we count on our agreements? Kashagan will allow to increase oil export by 2 times - imagine its value for us, for our budget! I think that this will allow the RK to equal the Russian Federation in terms of GDP per capita of the population. It is good that work is now underway and promise that they will finish it in the next year. But it took the personal intervention of the first persons. Our officials on this issue walked in a pre-infarction state. Of course, we could have her tankers to Azerbaijan and further; either to the side of China to build additional capacities, or something else. BUT WE REALLY AGREED WITH RUSSIA FOR 10 YEARS BACK. So I personally want there to be no such facts in our relationship.

    Correctly. Russia will leave Baikonur as soon as it builds an eastern one. Kazakhs, however, keep Baikonur in the complete absence of their own space industry and intelligible space programs simply does not make sense and there is not enough money. Here they think how to get out. Russia has frozen a new start, constantly delaying the resolution of any issues. In general, it became clear that Russia had lost interest in the Kazakhs and is using Baikonur insofar as. This shows a series of scandals with the Kazakhs.

      If it were only a matter of profit, then of course they wouldn’t come ... but the Americans and the Chinese would come .. at least to the peak of Russia .. Israel can, because they have problems launching from their territory (somewhere read, I hope not confused ..) ..
      The position of the Kazakh side is highlighted in the article "Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back" http://www.asiakz.com/zvezdnir-voiny
      I threw it on "VO", but for some reason it did not pass moderation .. wink
      "According to the deputy of the Verkhovna Rada Anatoly Kinakh, the refusal of the Angara may indicate Russia's unwillingness to share it with Kazakhstan."
      In general, Kazakhstan paid Roscosmos for the creation of Baiterek, i.e. actually participated in partial financing of the creation of "Angara", but for his own money, and considerable RK received in exchange, in fact, only the use of the Baiterek brand.
      The question is what is it called ?? !! negative
      As a result: Kazakhstan does not refuse agreements with Russia, including those that provide for a gradual reduction in launches of environmentally harmful Proton missiles. In turn, Kazkosmos intends to reorient Baiterek to launch the Russian-Ukrainian Zenit-3SL rocket, which is a direct competitor of Proton-K. On Baikonur under the "Zenith" built two launchers. Kazkosmos conducts training of specialists, holds negotiations with other market participants, and even tries to create satellites.
      In particular, one of the priorities of Kazcosmos is the creation of an assembly and testing complex of spacecraft. It is officially stated that after its creation, an enterprise will appear in the country “to provide services for the design, assembly and testing of spacecraft for various purposes - communications and broadcasting, remote sensing of the Earth, scientific, technological and other components of the payload and elements of space technology”.
      It is hard to imagine what will come of it. It is unlikely that Kazakhstan will be able to independently enter the space launch market, but it will still be able to do something. In any case, this is better than just giving money for projects like Ishim, Kazsat-1, or even the old Baiterek project. Moreover, it is probably cheaper. Any conflict once ends, the main thing is to learn from it and clearly understand what your interests are.

      At Yuzhmash, Zenith LV is mainly assembled, which by 85-90% consists of Russian components, in fact, Yuzhmashev's developments there are no more than 15%. In principle, with a strong desire, Russia could arrange assembly on its territory, this topic was discussed, but a decision was made to develop the Angara launch vehicle. Kazakhstan, having abandoned the Russian "Angara" launch vehicles, did not go anywhere from cooperation with the Russian Federation, it simply took itself out of the risks when introducing new technology and saved on the creation of a launch complex. All the insinuations about the preference for the "Ukrainian" missile over the Russian are mere silly teasers.

Baikonur will live as a cosmodrome only with a large annual number of launches, and for this it is necessary not to trade in places for development, but to offer transport services using a good and reliable launch vehicle, and for this it would be nice to do what I wrote to you below.

If I were in Kazakhstan, I would propose to make Zenit not a Russian-Ukrainian but a trilateral one and would try to increase the share in joint production to 2-5%, then I would not have to act as a poor relative (especially since you are not poor . just don’t screw up, invest in production)

Russia will still need Progress in Baikonur (which is environmentally dirty and cheap), when the new Angara rocket shows itself and proves its advantage, then Russia leaves. Well, it may have a limited presence in Baikonur to prevent other players from appearing here (from Russia it’s right why to breed competitors and reduce our influence with us), well, Kazakhstan needs to prepare for it in its own way. At the expense of tripartite cooperation, Russia will also have big doubts at any moment if Ukraine feels uet kokurentsiyu (Example AN aircraft) well ricocheted we arrive at this think if you start cooperation and to invest it with the other participants in the space race whom Russia will not be able to bend at any time on a whim.

Commercial launches are a completely different matter; with their growth, only a stupid one can abandon sites in Baikonur, Vostochny will take a long time to reach Baikonur. You, Kazakhs, understand this very well and want to have your share (not a small one), but I repeat, you have to invest, not collecting rent, but joint production of Zenith is a good idea.

              Great countries set great goals, including in space, small ones and small targets, and accordingly the number of launches they have is not large. I repeat the 218th time, you need to go to the space car market with your own LV and not with square meters.

                I have heard and know about great and small countries and their goals (they have been taught since childhood). So far we cannot afford our own RN and not according to technical capabilities. About cooperation with Ukraine, I think I wrote a dead version, because there will be dependence on Russia and it can at any time put an end to this cooperation (if it feels competition or because of any of its caprice) I think the Kazakhs are being dragged into another zho-poo from the Ukrainian launch vehicle where 80% of the Russian components are now the state will invest a few yards of bucks, and then in connection with the next Russian-Ukrainian scandal this launch vehicle will never fly anywhere, so I think we need to take a closer look at other partners. As I understand there are four major players in the world and they are not interested in cooperation with Kazakhstan (unless geopolitics), but there are 3-4 smaller players and I think they will be interested in both "square meters" and the money that Kazakhstan is ready to invest in this business, so we need to start cooperation with them. I will repeat 219 times my cosmodrome and my launch vehicle are an ideal option, so far there is no such thing, but we must strive for this.

      Russia now has a Sea Launch complex at its disposal, although it is in the ocean, but missiles can be launched directly from the equator.

    rejection of Angara may indicate Russia's unwillingness to share it with Kazakhstan

              The Kazakhs, who do not want excessive rapprochement with Russia, simply see that part of the Russians and Russian officials, to put it mildly, are not friends with Kazakhstan and the Kazakhs. The majority of Kazakhs consider it necessary to integrate with their neighbors (not only with Russia), but they also see all these negative manifestations (even at this forum). However, they are simply optimists (like me) and hope that in Russia the main population also wants integration and at the same time they do not imagine themselves above the rest.
              Not a single Kazakh supporter of integration admits the thought that this integration would turn into the Soviet version (in the sense when the opinion of the Kazakhs was ignored a little more than completely, and instead of developing our own culture, we were forcedly "cut" under the sauce of a "single Soviet community" ).
              In Russia, many still perceive current and future alliances with their neighbors as a reconstruction of the Russian Empire. Do we need it? The Eurasian Union by the Kazakhs is perceived as a real equal society of member states, this was the idea of ​​Nazarbayev.
              In Russia, the masses often present this idea in a distorted form, which is unacceptable for Kazakhs (Ukrainians and others). If Belarusians agree to Russify, then this is their problem. The rest do not want to confuse a political, military, economic union with the concept of "Russian space".
              If Russia believes that the future Union is just expansion of Russia (as it was in the Republic of Ingushetia and the USSR) at the expense of other lands, then I will be the first to enter the square in front of Akorda's residence with a poster for withdrawing from all "integration" projects with Russia. And if Russia perceives its neighbors as equal partners, then I will make every effort for an early military-political-economic union.
              I am somehow not interested in living in a pseudo-union, where they will again mold a "Russian man" from my Mongoloid muzzle. And my country will be considered exclusively as a raw material base. At the same time, constantly reproaching the same fact. In my opinion, we have already gone through all this.
              Want "business and nothing personal"? You can get it. Only you will not have joy from this. Moreover, the lion's share of the economy of the Urals and Western Siberia is tied to Kazakhstan. This is from the rupture of economic ties with Georgia, Russia does not lose anything. But Kazakhstan is a completely different song. So the phrase "Business and nothing personal" in our relationship is unacceptable. If the Kazakhs begin to adhere to such tactics, then Russia will lose on all counts. Starting from the fact that it will be forced to create on the basis of the Central Military District - full-fledged troops and deploy border guards along the entire border and ending with the fact that your budget will stop earning on the re-export of Central Asian hydrocarbons to Europe.
              Or we are allies and resolve issues in a reasonable consensus, or we run up nafig in different directions. You are engaged in a purely Russian empire, and then we will build the Turkic Kaganate. True, in the end, there will be a confrontation, because the Turkic world is the lion's share of the Russian Federation from Yakutia to the North Caucasus.
              No one wants a similar confrontation scenario. It’s easier to live together, as it has always been since the days of the Haganates, principalities, the Horde, the Republic of Ingushetia and the USSR. Take-off in different directions - it’s cutting in a living way. This is not a separation of Algeria from France or India from Britain, we have all mixed up our languages, culture, economy, history, geography a hundred times here. Sometimes you can’t figure out where is yours and where is ours.

    Russia is creating the Vostochny cosmodrome not to annoy its neighbors, but to breathe new life into the Far East. This is a strategic project for Russia! Vostochny will be the most modern cosmodrome on the planet with advanced technical solutions. Therefore, it is more expedient to create the revolutionary Angara missile system from the beginning on its territory, and then, based on its national interests at that future moment in history, it is possible in Kazakhstan, and maybe somewhere else, for example, in French Guiana!

    I want to immediately explain two main technological solutions for which I consider the Angara missile system revolutionary:
    1. This is a modular system of 5-7mi load classes.
    2. This is the further development of the complex by creating a reusable first stage.

    And a little pathos: the most modern missile system at the most modern spaceport! good

    I don't quite understand the bitterness of some commentators. There are practically no chances that Russia will leave Baikonur. The construction of Vostochny is a desire to influence Kazakhstan, including, but with adequate policies of both sides, the Kazakh site will remain working and loaded with Russian equipment. The same China is building itself another, or the fourth, or the fifth cosmodrome and does not consider it unnecessary. Russia has launch sites - Plesetsk, Kapustin Yar, Baikonur. Soon there will be East. Or does it seem superfluous to someone that the most high-tech production receives additional development? And the attempts of some, who are not at all our comrades, by speculations to generate another conflict, show that outside "comrades" have their own interests in Kazakhstan, for example, transit military bases.

    It seems to me that Russia takes advantage of the fact that in 1) Russia is a monopoly on this issue - it breaks prices / conditions as it wants. 2) That’s all - from the Russian side. Russia acts as a producer / performer. Kazakhs are like customers. Kazakhs really want to at least a little understanding in these complex technologies, so as not to be deceived. But alas. The remaining specialists are old people from the USSR. New? So in Kazakhstan there is no base to train. Students on training? Who benefits from teaching strangers? In general - rightly so. I see this situation as deplorable in the sense that a Kazakh has galloped on a horse and wants to buy a satellite / missiles, and he doesn’t bother about it. Everyone is looking for the guilty - why they say they are trying to deceive him - but he is to blame. As long as there are no specialists of their own — Kazakhs need to get out of it — to deal with the third party, or better, with many. Learn, study and study again. To be able to and be able to. And this is a very long process. So far, in the hockey and ballet sections, I see only Russians. I do not think that in the electronics section the situation is different.

And according to your statements, it looks like you see the only justice - a Kazakh galloped on horseback to the cosmodrome, they put him on a carpet, treated him to pilaf, kumys, played on a stick with a hole, showed how the rocket flies away, gave a bag of dough, glass beads and let him go in peace until the next launch ...

              Alexei, American flag thanks to Beeline. I am physically in Kazakhstan. I have never been to the USA.
              Do not think that Kazakhstan relies only on oil. The money from oil goes to the creation of other sectors of the economy, as well as to infrastructure projects. Of course, it seems to someone that they are "screwed up", but if you study the economic realities of our country at least a little, your opinion will begin to change.
              By the way, let me remind you that the raw material base of Kazakhstan was created not by "stupid Kazakhstani officials", but in the Soviet era, which you probably miss. What are we talking about if the Kazakh SSR did not produce any mayonnaise, or nails, or canned milk, or electrical household goods (except for the Medeu radio)?
              It is only at the present time that the state is clearly pursuing a policy of diversifying the economy and reducing the raw materials sector in the country's GDP. Until 1991, all talk about this was cut off in Moscow at the root. So the question is "why do we have a resource-based economy?" it would be worth asking the then Soviet authorities in Moscow.
              And the question: "What for us a space program and rockets?" as relevant for us as for a simple Soviet citizen of 1950, when your country is still in ruins, when there is a shortage of basic goods, when the people seem to have a lot of other problems than space exploration. Let's call the then efforts of the Soviet government "show-off" and "unnecessary"?
              Wake up, today is 2013. And I have a feeling that you were stuck in 1995. Well, or not interested in their own country since that year.

              p / s All this was not created in one day and I am sure that it will only continue to increase, let us take small steps in front of us.

    Yes, they heard, 35 people were sent, supposedly the satellites will be collecting in this assembly workshop, it’s not clear whose and what kind of assembly, like a screwdriver or something7 For some reason, there is a lot of talk about Kazakhstan’s space intentions, but I haven’t seen any information about the current state Zenit launch moment

    frankly, Zenith is not Russian or Ukrainian, but a Soviet missile developed and produced in Dnepropetrovsk. Perhaps the best RN in the USSR, so the choice of the Kazakhs is correct. Russia, Ukraine and Kazakhstan benefit from this choice. If this project is really implemented (knocking on wood, spitting over my left shoulder), then I will not be surprised if Russia starts to use Zenith "to its fullest", at least as components (booster stages) of a heavy rocket-successor to Energiya, as and they are offered at RSC Energia ... Concerning the Angara. This rocket will be hard. Here it is appropriate to draw an analogy with the Bulava, which has already been "almost made" and "almost adopted" and this whole story has been going on for the second decade. Angara - as a Lego constructor for all types of missiles - is not a trivial task at all, which was not "performed" even in the USSR, and what can we say now, in the period after the collapse of the rocket industry and engineering personnel. Of course, I wish the Russians success, but I am skeptical.

        I do not think that Russia will put sticks in the wheels of Zenith. Nazarbayev and Putin stopudovo have already discussed this matter. If Russia made it clear that it would oppose the Zenith, it would be unlikely that Kazakhstan would officially announce that it was choosing a Ukrainian missile.
        In short, everything is theoretically possible, but in reality, I think, everything has already been finally agreed between the three countries.

    I think everything looks a little different. Russia is building a new cosmodrome to get rid of Baikonur. does not want to fully depend on a partner (afraid of new, possibly fair demands). Kazakhstan wants to develop a space program, seeing that Russia can leave Baikonur, it has found a backup option - Zenit. Everything is logical and not so scary. It's just a little sad that there is a CU, the Eurasian Union is preparing, the CSTO. But all this is an empty phrase, it all does not work to the end, everyone wants to warm up their partner, they don’t agree that way. Based on the events taking place, we can conclude that the leaders of the three key powers either do not have full power, or cannot abandon petty clan or personal interests. There is no trust in each other, there was no need to start, there is not enough steel in the causal places of the current leaders (well, who has more, who has less). It remains only to wait until those appear, but for now we live separately. Something like this.

Newfound crime businessmen have learned well from them. This always happens when there is no responsibility. And now, by the way, an opportunity to break this circle appeared: The case with Belkali - Kerimov is an obvious gangster, he has already highlighted his ties in the state apparatus, the Russian leadership can only make a strong-willed decision and take action - the arrest of those involved and the nationalization of Uralkali, this move, as it unfolds business is very real.

    What difference does rockets fly or not? What difference will Baikonur live or will it be turned over for scrap?
    The main thing is that all the Russian and Kazakh chiefs associated with the Cosmos and their cousins ​​in chocolate - with big salaries, Mercedes and arranged children !!!
    The times of fanatical enthusiasts such as Korolev, Chelomey and Yangel are long gone - the times of businessmen from the Cosmos who, by and large, do not care if Angara or Zenith will fly - the main thing is that the money flows like a river and as much as possible !!! And cooperate, develop and create a gray herd of these "rubber asses" simply does not know how!

    I wonder how many commercial launches were made from Baikonur in the 20 years after the collapse of the USSR? How many millions were earned on this? Why is so little invested in this money in Baikonur itself and in new launch vehicles? And the main thing is not even that was invested a little or a lot, but that the effectiveness of these investments is scanty !!!

    One thing is surprising - how far the generation of Soviet missile developers looked - they all died for a long time and many of their ideas and design decisions are still largely basic and advanced in rocket science !!!

    Well, Zenit got off to a good start tonight. And the Israeli satellite is already in the given orbit. The only question (and the answer too) is the share of Kazakh and Ukrainian specialists in the starting calculation? Is that a lot? What if we remove those who flew in for business trips, but didn’t get a chance? What, so there’s no one at all? Take it, let it go... Just first, train at least someone. Neither the Ukrainians nor the Kazakhs have the required number of specialists. And even if they do, it won’t be in this century. No infrastructure. There is no control center, no IPs.

            You can lure away specialists (either Russian or American) with a simple thing. Salary. For the budget of Kazakhstan, maintaining a staff of good Varangian engineers is not burdensome. They just don’t want to include this resource now, so as not to spoil relations with Roscosmos. But if Roscosmos continues to behave like an arrogant pig, then Kazkosmos will stupidly lure Russian specialists with high salaries. Moreover, in Russia they receive pennies (there were articles on this topic this year).

            Israel raised its science by buying Soviet "brains" (not only Jewish ones) air tickets to Tel Aviv. I came across this expression from an Israeli science official about 9 years ago, when in our department we were studying this country’s experience in creating an innovative economy.
            Later, this principle was applied to attract specialists from abroad to work at Nazarbayev University in Astana. If necessary, legionnaires will be recruited quickly into the space industry - we will give money, awards, apartments, and all other necessary conditions for work and fame.
            ZY Let me remind you that just a few years ago there was no automobile industry in Kazakhstan. Today, a bunch of car assembly plants have already been created with a certain level of localization, which will increase from year to year.

                Car production in Kazakhstan has increased 20 times in 3 years (the life of the vehicle). In 2012, 21236 cars were assembled, including 19094 passenger cars (an increase of 2,3 times compared to 2011) and 1771 units of trucks (an increase of 1,9 times), 191 buses (an increase of 1,7 times) and 180 units of special equipment.
                14487 cars were assembled in the first half of 2013 (+ 83%).
                657 billion tenge - Domestic machine-building enterprises produced products for this amount in 2012. Localization is somewhere around 30%, the remaining parts are imported. On average, the level of domestic parts everywhere will be increased to 50%.

                In addition to the mentioned Asia-Auto (Oskemen), there is also Sary-Arka Avtoprom (Kostanay), Astana-Motors, Allur-Avto (owner of Agromashholding, Kostanay), Kamaz-Engineering, etc.

                SsangYoung, ZAZ, Iveco, Hyundai, Kamaz, Nefaz, Skoda, Chevrolet, Lada, etc. are assembled in KZ. Law enforcement agencies and other government agencies use almost only domestic cars.

                In addition to the stamps already collected, new stamps related to Toyota and Peugeot will appear in the near future.
                Toyota plans to release the Fortuner model in Kostanay in the spring of 2014. Peugeot is about to release the Peugeot 301, Peugeot 308, Peugeot 508 and Peugeot Partner in KZ.

                So far, all real projects are working on the large-knot assembly (DKD) system, but in November 2013, CKD will begin working at AgromashHolding - this is a different level of production, just metal comes to the plant, and a whole car comes out of the workshop. Then CKD will start "Asia Auto". The first stage is designed for 60 thousand cars, the second - for another 60 thousand until 2017. In total, this is 120 thousand cars only on AsiaAuto projects. Plus an assembly of DKD, which they are already releasing.

                In general, by 2020, Kazakh factories plan export (primarily to Russia) 220-300 thousand cars. This figure was not taken out of thin air, but a calculation made by the Ministry of Industry and Kazakh automobile plants.

                  The automotive industry stimulates the creation and development of a number of related enterprises - batteries, glass, plastic, paint, wires, etc. All this is already being produced or is being prepared for launch.

                  We have not come up with anything new in creating this industry. In the early 2000s, officials simply studied foreign experience and then redrawn legislation to create the necessary conditions. As a result, even Russian automakers suddenly found themselves faced with the fact that the Kazakhs were very quickly setting up production and did not hide their intentions to “capture” 10% of the Russian market. AvtoVAZ, by the way, has already officially given its West Siberian market to the Ust-Kamenogorsk residents (but at the same time bought a blocking stake in the Kazakh plant). The rest of the manufacturers in Russia will have to “fight” with Kazakh car factories, since the cost of Kazakh cars is lower (due to taxes, energy prices and the lack of idle capacity and other ballast).
                  Yes, today we deliberately lost to the Russians on our own field by joining the CU, but tomorrow, precisely because of the CU, the Russians will begin to lose to us on their market. Yes, today it will be expensive to buy a Japanese car, but we have created jobs within the country in a new industry. And we will buy Toyotas of our own production. Let them be other people's brands. Let these be licenses. But people work, and the lion’s share of the money remains within the country, and does not go 100% to other countries. Moreover, they have already begun to earn money from exports.
                  Kazakhstan copied the South Korean experience in the automotive industry. We are already accustomed to buying a domestically produced TV or DVD (albeit from a foreign label, for example LG), and soon we will get used to our own cars.

    And how is Kazakhstan going to lure them to itself in numbers sufficient to launch Zenit-2?

    Well, I can imagine there is pressure on patriotic feelings, money, high positions, nothing else comes to mind

      But it already happened. I lured the Republic of Kazakhstan (Republic of Kazakhstan) to a bunch of heads of canteens and clothing warehouses. I was horrified. )) It turns out that being a “respected warehouse manager” does not mean replacing the starting calculation number.

        Now they work for us more carefully and without haste. But, God forbid, only by the end of this century will the Republic of Kazakhstan have its own specialists. Although, if you go to Turkish-patriotic sites, every first person there is S.P. Korolev.

    Actually, we’ll discuss it after Proton. After a successful launch. There's not much left. And then also after a successful manned one.)) And about Glonas...Well, since 1982 the group has not developed in any way (Putin, Medvedev, Putin, Yeltsin, Gorbachev, Chernenko, Andropov...and Dear Leonid Ilyich are to blame)

    Well, he did just a good job - he gave a start, but there is a problem with continuers and followers. So, dear Leonid Ilyich passed away into another world, his place was taken by Andropov, this one zealously took up affairs throughout the country, for which they put a bullet in his kidney and after short endeavors he followed dear Leonid Ilyich, Chernenko, well, what mountain heights are there, if sometimes he moved with difficulty, and after a short sitting he followed the previous ones, Gorbachev - perestroika, new thinking, the end of the Iron Curtain, the withdrawal of troops from Germany, Afghanistan, Prohibition, “We want change” by Viktor Tsoi, in general what on this Glonass background? Further dramatic events, Foros, Alexander Rutskoy with a machine gun, putsch of the State Emergency Committee, switch-off USSR, not up to Glonass and here, Yeltsin, “take as much sovereignty as you can,” parade of sovereignties, severance of economic ties, barter, flourishing of shuttles, first Chechen war, default , "I'm leaving..." on New Year's Eve, Putin "we'll wash it in the toilet", the second Chechen war, high oil prices, launch of Glonass satellites, launch of Glonass satellites, crisis of the 8th, sledgehammer and proton, our days...

      About the sensors on the Proton - yes, there is something to laugh about. Well, who and when officially gave out the real reason right away, and not 50 years later? If only Pimply. He is an analyst of everything and everyone, of all times and peoples. But in general... sabotage or sloppiness - I know, but I won’t say)))

      Yes, everything will be fine with him, or rather with her, with the Global Navigation System. There is only one problem - like failure, so - about polymers, like - luck - so about the same thing and with even greater frenzy. I usually silently read articles and comments - but here it’s already hot))

    Competition. Still, the main reason for this decision was its cost, although, in my opinion, Zenit has a higher percentage of trouble-free launches!

    To be honest, I don’t quite understand the disputes in the comments between Russians and Kazakhs - you need to come to an agreement and actively cooperate!!! Mutually beneficial work will benefit both peoples... It’s surprising that so far no hints have been heard from either Moscow or Astana about a common development strategy (including in the Space industry)... If only major strategic projects and agreements appeared between countries, you see, other neighbors would begin to cooperate more actively... And so far we see basically the same as the last 20 years - presidents actively hugging and walking arm in arm - but as they say, things are still there!!!
    No - something is clearly going WRONG in the former Union space!!! Involuntarily, you begin to believe in the Occupation theory of Russian Deputy Fedorov!!!

      It’s surprising that so far no hints have been heard from either Moscow or Astana about a general development strategy (including in the Space industry)

      Initially, the strategy was as simple as 5 kopecks. The Kazakhs rent out the city and the cosmodrome to Russia for a symbolic sum, and Russia conducts full-scale activities there, not allowing the city to collapse.
      Everything changed after Russia began to build a new cosmodrome and it became clear that Baikonur would get crumbs from the cosmic table, and this would cause the death of the city and the unique object. At the same time, Russia, naturally, will hold on to the fact that it will lease Baikonur for 50 years, and, naturally, during this time it will not let anyone in there, and upon the expiration of the lease it will simply return the dead city and the cosmodrome.
      Of course, this does not suit the Kazakhs, who, to put it mildly, did not expect such a turn. The Kazakh proposals are as follows:
      If Russia is going to transfer the bulk of launches from another cosmodrome, then let it give the Kazakhs the opportunity to prevent the city and cosmodrome from dying by participating in space projects. Moreover, participation is expected jointly with Russia. For this, the Kazakhs completely relieve Russia of the obligation to pay rent.
      Since it is clear that the Russians will not cooperate with the Kazakhs in all projects, the Kazakhs propose to allow Ukraine to Baikonur in order to work with them where cooperation with Russia is unrealistic.
      Roscosmos has been hysterical since the end of last year, presenting Kazakhs in articles in a completely different form to the way they appear. Roscosmos has created a picture from which it turns out that the Kazakhs simply stupidly want to kick Russia out of Baikonur, although no one in the government of Kazakhstan had and does not have such thoughts. And since the heads of departments could not find a common language, Nazarbayev himself flew to Moscow, where he agreed with Putin that real joint work at Baikonur would begin. It is unclear and unknown what the final configuration will look like - this is now being done by specialists and officials. They are looking for an acceptable option for using Baikonur.
      Considering that Astana always agreed with Moscow on strategic issues, then I have no doubt that both Kazakhstan and Russia will cooperate at Baikonur and will not let it die. And now it becomes clear that Ukraine will also be involved in the Baikonur issue. And this is good. Because ideally, IMHO, “Soviet” people should work at Baikonur, not the US, French, Japanese or Chinese. Another thing is that if hypothetically the Russians do not begin cooperation, then Kazakhstan will be forced look for partners from third countries.
      Baikonur is not going to get an Angara, this is already clear (however, it is not clear how Russia is going to return the Kazakh money spent on this joint project; however, Roscosmos is no stranger to "throwing money" at Astana - this is not the first time). So God himself ordered us to cooperate with the Ukrainians.
