Commercial rocket complexes for launching small spacecrafts

Abstract

The State Rocket Centre "Makeyev Design Bureau" offers the commercial rocket complexes SHTIL-2 and RIKSHA intended to launch small spacecrafts into orbit and form space segments of low-orbit satellite communication and Earth remote sounding systems. The pay load mass injected into orbit by the launch vehicles is from 48 kg to 300 kg for the SHTIL-2 complex and from 330 kg to 1700 kg for the RIKSHA complex depending on orbit altitude and inclination.
