Abstract

This paper presents data on the development of storable fuel space engines, in 2000 – 11000 N thrust range.

The engines provide multiple in-flight restarts and thrust regulation. They can be used to ensure a soft landing onto space bodies.

Proven technologies and structural elements, crucial for LRE’s serviceability, will be used during engine development to ensure the required performance within the speci-fied thrust range and development cost reduction.
