Ends creation of engine MBSK02 for Eagle ship

In the Research Institute of Mechanical Engineering (included in the integrated structure of the NGO Energomash NGOs, named after V.P. Glushko State Corporation “Roskosmos”) The autonomous experimental testing of the MBSK Rocket Engine is completed, which is designed to provide maneuvering in space of a promising pilotable transport ship “Eagle”.

MBSK02 rocket engine differs significantly from the current analog engines, a number of technical solutions have been successfully implemented in its design, allowing to ensure the stability of traction and consuming characteristics under any operating conditions, as well as the quick launch dynamics during each inclusion.

“Currently completed climatic, corrosion and firing resource tests of three engine copies, experimentally confirmed the designated service life – 7 years, including 560 days of flight operation in space,” commented by the deputy chief designer for operation and testing NIIMASH Vladimir Murkin.

To ensure integrated tests of the mock-ups of the Eagle transport ship, and put in the Rocket and Space Corporation “Energy” named after S.P. The queen (included in Roscosmos) 30 copies of the so-called “modal layouts” for vibrodynamic and thermal tests, as well as 16 copies of the engine of the engine MBSK02-01, specially intended for fire stand tests.
