Scientific production association of Yekaterinburg and design office of Miass negotiate on re-designing ballistic missiles into carrier rockets

N.A. Semikhatov Scientific Production Association of Yekaterinburg and V.P. Makeev design office of Miass, Chelyabinsk Region, have been negotiating on the order to redesign some ballistic missiles into carrier rockets. The latter are being asked for by the countries that are planning to use them for launching their satellites from the submarines. Yekaterinburg Company has been developing the special programs that allow re-programming of the rocket flying path, which reduces the cost of near-earth orbit launching, It appears to be more profitable than using the new format carriers and. moreover, the project would provide the recycling scheme for the obsolete missiles in an environmentally friendly way. RosAtom has already successfully launched the redesigned carriers bearing German Tubsat-N satellites twice.
