Five such engines are expected to be used in the first stage of the rocket. The RD-0169A engine, created at KBKhA, is made according to the scheme with afterburning of oxidizing generator gas, has a thrust near the Earth of 100 tons, and the frequency of use is up to ten times.
Work on the new engine has reached the stage of manufacturing the first copy. In the workshops, the production of components and assemblies is carried out, after which the assembly of the first engine will follow for conducting ground autonomous tests.
Previously, KBKhA performed preliminary design, developed working design documentation, conducted model tests to study the processes of ignition and mixture formation, manufactured and carried out autonomous finishing tests of individual components and assemblies of a prototype engine.

PATRIOT PARK / Moscow region /, August 14. /TASS/. The device of the base module of the promising Russian Orbital Station (ROS) can be viewed for the first time at the Army-2023 International Military-Technical Forum, a TASS correspondent reports from the scene.
The layout is presented by the Energia Rocket and Space Corporation at the joint exposition of Roscosmos.
A special projection holographic exposition demonstrates the procedure for assembling the station, the type of equipment and features of interaction with spacecraft.
In the spring, RSC Energia placed a tender for the supply of a 1:5 scale model of the base module of the Russian Orbital Station. Then the TASS Corporation announced plans to demonstrate at this year's exhibitions a mock-up of the basic ROS module with its internal structure.

PATRIOT PARK / Moscow region /, August 14. /TASS/. Center them. M. V. Khrunicheva (part of Roscosmos) presented a model of a promising ultra-light launch vehicle at the Army-2023 International Military-Technical Forum, a TASS correspondent reports from the scene.
The general director of the center, Aleksey Varochko, told TASS the day before that the company was conducting search work to determine the possible appearance of an ultralight launch vehicle. Earlier, Roscosmos also reported that the Khrunichev Center will show a model of a two-stage ultralight rocket at Army-2023.
It is assumed that it will fly on kerosene and liquid oxygen, without the use of an upper stage. At the same time, the duration of the payload launch into orbit will be up to 2 hours, and the mass of the payload launched into a sun-synchronous orbit will be up to 600 kg.

Moscow. August 23. INTERFAX.RU - The Soyuz-2.1a carrier rocket launched the Progress MS-24 transport cargo ship into orbit, follows from the Roscosmos broadcast.
The spacecraft separated from the third stage at 04:17 Moscow time and headed for the International Space Station (ISS). The flight of the ship will take place according to a two-day scheme.
Docking to the Zvezda module of the Russian segment of the ISS is scheduled for August 25 at 06:50 Moscow time.
The Soyuz-2.1a rocket with the Progress MS-24 truck was launched at 04:08 Moscow time from pad No. 31 of the Baikonur Cosmodrome.
According to Roskosmos, the truck will stay in orbit for 174 days.
In the materials of the state corporation for the launch, it is noted that during the flight Progress MS-24 will make 34 orbits around the Earth, on the way to the ISS it will overcome 1.4 million km.
The ship will deliver 2495 kg of cargo to the station, including 500 kg of fuel for refueling the station, 420 kg of drinking water, 40 kg of nitrogen, as well as 1535 kg of medical and sanitary products, food, clothing, resource equipment, tools, materials for ensuring the life of the crew of the 69th long-term expedition and conducting scientific experiments.
Also, according to Roskosmos, the SOVA-2-228 and SOVA-2-426 video spectral equipment orientation systems created in Belarus for the Uragan experiment, within the framework of which the technical means and methods of development control are being tested, will be brought to the ISS. catastrophic natural and man-made phenomena on Earth or their precursors.

*** Borisov: Russian designers and scientists are "burning with the idea of continuing the lunar project"
Moscow. 25-th of August. Interfax - After the accident with the Luna-25 spacecraft, Roscosmos is considering the possibility of repeating the mission to land an automatic station on the South Pole of the Moon in 2025-2026, the state corporation said on Friday.
"One of the options for continuing the program may be to consider the possibility of repeating the mission to land on the South Pole of the Moon in 2025-2026," the message says.
Roskosmos reported that today the general director of the state corporation, Yuri Borisov, held a working meeting at NPO Lavochkina, the lead developer of the automatic station Luna-25.
According to the general director of Roskosmos, Russian designers and scientists are "burning with the idea of continuing the lunar project."
On August 21, a soft landing at the South Pole of the natural satellite of the Earth of the Russian interplanetary station "Luna-25" was to take place. However, on August 20, according to Roskosmos, Luna-25 crashed on impact with the lunar surface.
Borisov on the same day stated that the main reason for the collapse of the Luna-25 station was a failure when the engine was to be turned off. "Instead of the planned 84 seconds, he worked 127 seconds. This was the main cause of the accident of the apparatus," he said.
He noted that Russia should not interrupt the lunar program, in order to achieve technological sovereignty, the country must participate in the "moon race". “I think that by forcing the Luna-26 and Luna-27 missions, we will definitely get lost results, which we did not get during the implementation of the Luna-25 mission due to the accident,” Borisov said.
On August 11, Borisov reported that the launch of the Luna-26 mission is scheduled for 2027, Luna-27 for 2028, and the launch of Luna-28 is planned for 2030 or later.
