Kiev authorities are ready to consider any options for cooperation with the United States in creating a rocket engine instead of the Russian RD-180, reports MIC with reference to the head of the Ukrainian Space Agency (SCAU), Oleg Urusky.
“Indeed, there is an innovation in the fact that we have never produced a first-stage mid-flight engine; this is a little new topic for us. But our GKB Yuzhnoye has made significant progress in this direction, and today, with its new development, it participates in a serious tender in the USA. ”- said Uru.
At the request of Ukrainian journalists to assess the "potential of bilateral cooperation in the expensive program of the US Air Force," the head of the agency admitted: "Of course, in such large-scale projects, it is not possible without political support."
In his opinion, the refusal to cooperate with Russia in space programs allows us to hope that Washington will support Ukraine’s participation in the project. “We think that this cooperation will be mutually beneficial both for the American side and for Ukraine,” said Urusky.
“We are ready to consider any options for cooperation: we understand that the United States does not want to be dependent on foreign suppliers,” he said. “I think that something will be produced in the United States, something we will have, something we will produce together.”
