Denis Manturov visited the Scientific and Production Association of Automatics, part of the state corporation Roscosmos. With the General Director of NPOA Mikhail Izyumov

First Deputy Prime Minister Denis Manturov visited the Scientific and Production Association of Automatics (part of the Roscosmos State Corporation), one of the largest Russian enterprises in the field of development and production of control systems and electronic equipment for rocket and space technology. The First Deputy Prime Minister assessed the readiness of the control system for the Soyuz-5 launch vehicle.

Currently, NPO Avtomatiki is completing the manufacture of the control system for the Soyuz-5 launch vehicle. Denis Manturov visited the complex stand where the control system is undergoing development tests.

NPOA CEO Mikhail Izyumov said that the new main unit of the system is four times more compact and lighter than the unit for the Soyuz-2 launch vehicle. The use of a high-speed, productive onboard computer will optimize the communication between the rocket and ground launch equipment. This will simplify the process of preparing the product. The capabilities of the onboard computer will ensure the deployment of all test modes directly on board, and not on ground equipment. Mikhail Izyumov emphasized that the control system will be handed over for flight tests in accordance with the work schedule.

Also, for Soyuz-5, an emergency engine protection system for the first and second stages has been developed and is being manufactured, which will allow cyclically with a duration of several milliseconds to assess the state of the engine based on its operating parameters. The control will help to identify a possible emergency situation, prevent its further development and promptly issue a command to shut down the engine. In the event of an abnormal situation on the first stage engine, it will save the rocket and the launch complex, and during the flight of the second stage, if it is possible to continue the flight on one of the engine blocks, it will turn off two chambers of the emergency block, and two chambers of the second block will work. Such a scheme will be used for the first time on domestic rockets.

Denis Manturov was also presented with the capabilities of NPO Avtomatiki in the production of devices for unmanned agricultural machinery, equipment for the oil and gas production industry, as well as sensors and detectors.
