Energomash ready for serial production of rocket engine for Soyuz-5 carrier rocket Two flight items of the engine have been created, with the third one planned to be built this year, Energomash head Igor Arbuzov noted PATRIOT PARK /Moscow Region/August 13/ The Energomash Research and Production Association (part of the State Space Corporation Roscosmos) "is ready in principle" for serial production of the RD-171MV rocket engine designed for the first stage of the Soyuz-5 carrier rocket, head of the enterprise Igor Arbuzov told TASS on the sidelines of the Army 2024 military-technical forum. "Serial production is expected once serial order for the engine appears," he said. "The enterprise is ready in principle, it has confirmed its readiness through creation of engines for ground-based practice and supply of engines for tests," Arbuzov added. Two flight items of the engine have been created, with the third one planned to be built this year, he noted. #business #finance #financialservices

💥 The Evolution and Impact of Shaped Charges 💥 Only one candidate for 'S' in the Alford A to Z... Shaped charges have a rich history and remain one of the most fascinating innovations in explosives. Developed during World War II, they were first used by German engineers who sought to create more effective anti-tank weapons. But the roots of this technology stretch back even further - to the 1880s - when Munroe first observed the phenomenon of focused explosive energy, later dubbed the 'Munroe Effect'. 🎓 How does a shaped charge work? Concentrating explosive energy into a narrow jet allows it to penetrate thick armour or other materials with astonishing precision. This groundbreaking principle reshaped military strategy, particularly in anti-tank warfare. While WWII marked the beginning of its practical use, the technology has since evolved beyond the battlefield. 👷♂️ Who uses them? Today, shaped charges are essential not just in defence but also in industries like oil and gas - where they're used in perforation processes for well completion - demolition, and even space. They are essential to Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) operations, where precision and effectiveness can mean the difference between life and death. The evolution of shaped charges has seen remarkable advancements over the years. Modern designs incorporate cutting-edge materials and computational modelling, pushing the boundaries of penetration and efficiency in increasingly challenging environments. The journey from simple conical designs to advanced linear and tandem charges is a testament to the continuous innovation in this field. At Alford Technologies, we're proud to be at the forefront of this innovation. Our range of patented and proven shaped charges, including Vulcan, Pluton and Magma, are trusted by operators across industries worldwide. These names have become synonymous with the technology.

The “perfect” rocket: EcoRocket Universal Propulsion Module In 2022 we’ve predicted that the EcoRocket Universal Propulsion Module (UPM) will be the last rocket designed and built by ARCA. From the A1 antiballistic interceptor to the world’s heaviest rocket EcoRocket Heavy, the UPM satisfy all our needs for commercial civilian an military applications, and space exploration. The UPM design and features allows us to quickly implement any application at unprecedented cost effectiveness, keeping sustainability in the highest regard. If such a thing exists, then for ARCA the EcoRocket UPM is the "perfect" rocket. #ARCASpace #ARCA #WeAreARCASpace #EcoRocket #EcoRocketHeavy #AMiExploration #AsteroidMining #AMiE #ballistic #hypersonic #missiles #interceptor #ICBM #MIRV #antiballistic
