New ship "Federation" equipped with improved recovery system
An emergency rescue system of the spacecraft of new generation "Federation" will be designed based on similar systems of the Soyuz spacecraft, but would become more powerful in the event of an emergency situation to separate the heavy Ship from the rocket and divert it to a safe distance, said Last news a source in the rocket and space industry.
An emergency rescue system designed to rescue the crew of a spaceship in case of an emergency situation during the flight of the rocket. This small, mast- "rocket" with its own propulsion system, is installed on top of the fairing that protects the Spacecraft from the air flow during flight in the atmosphere.
"The emergency rescue system for "Federation" developed by MKB " Iskra ", which produces the same System for ships " Soyuz ". According to its principle, the System is no will differ from the tried-and-true "Union," however, due to the fact that the mass of the "Federation" depending on the destination in 2-3 times above, the housing of the rod of the new system will be extended to include not four, but eight nozzles of the engines are located in 2 rows one above the other. Moreover, the solid-fuel charge for the engine will use more fuel, which will allow to increase its capacity,"
