Specialists from the Military Academy of the Strategic Missile Forces named after Peter the Great have created a prototype of a reusable rocket booster stage. This follows from the document accompanying the patent.
The invention relates to the field of rocket and space technology, in particular to a reusable rocket booster stage, and can be used in research and development work to create rocket booster stages, transport spacecraft, reusable aircraft flying in a wide range of speeds along a return trajectory, at the stage of flight tests.
The demonstrator design includes a body with ring tanks for fuel and oxidizer, a fuel component supply system, and a sustainer propulsion system with thrust vector control. A liquid propulsion system located in a separate landing unit is used for maneuvering relative to the center of mass. The body is also equipped with landing and loading/installation mechanisms.
The Russian device is the closest analogue to the American Falcon 9 FT, and it will allow testing the stage design, onboard systems, and autonomous landing in the altitude range up to 100 km and speeds up to Mach 4.
