Sergei Krikalev, Executive Director for Manned Programs at Roscosmos, announced that the state corporation aims to reduce the cost of finished satellites by more than a quarter. The slides presented at the Eurasian Aerospace Congress in Moscow indicated a price reduction of 28%.
Also among the goals of the Russian space agency is to reduce the risk of disrupting spacecraft production deadlines to 25% and increase production rates up to four times. As a reminder, Roscosmos head Yuri Borisov previously announced the space corporation's global goal – to switch to conveyor-belt production of satellites and produce one spacecraft per day.
