Remember this timeline??

HAVA & roadmap for SSTO

The one on GSLV Mk II- called RLV-ORV- is for RLV-TD return experiment (REX) & it will happen by 2022-23. It will only have a liquid apogee motor for orbiting/ de-orbiting maneuvers. it will place a small spacecraft in orbit, I guess they'll use a robotic arm. Roadmap for TSTO "Spaceplane"...

Hey, thanks bro. 👍

I guess such a system would be almost without parallel, anywhere in the world. A lot of modular concepts have remained ''concepts'' forever.

Also, There was this website called spaceflight.io or something which allowed one to design launchers & calculate delta-v by entering ISp, stage empty weight, engine, payload, propellent loading, etc. Ever tried that? I cannot find it now.

@Okabe Rintarou They are still taking about that 16T to GTO, 41T to LEO launcher.

*Ring rolling machines. Our present capability is 5.5 metre.

They used to charter civilian (SCI/NIOT) Platform Supply Vessels/ Research Vessels for carrying shipborne terminals previously. https://www.isro.gov.in/indigenous-ship-bound-terminal-tracks-pslv-c38-trajectory-successfully

A pressure fed 1.2 kN engine is comparable to a 2000kN Oxidiser rich stage combustion cycle one? Okay. :rofl:

Still alive ? :D ..............................................................................................................................................................

You do realize that it shutoff 20s before nominal, because of achieving required rel. vel faster ?

Lol, looks like the Takleef for Chinis have started. Just tell me, is there any kind of tax on LVs, depending upon their launch mass? How does it matter if ISRO's 6 ton class launcher weighs 700 tonnes, if the launch cost is less than $50 million? So much for BSing about 'efficiency'. Should...

True, there are several more upcoming satellites based on this bus, especially Gsat- Ka
