 S.P.Korolev RSC Energia - LAUNCHERS
From December 24, 1959 flight tests of rocket R-7A without a radio control system and with a newly designed warhead were commenced.
Rocket R-7, with a launch mass of 276 t and a warhead mass of 3 t, was capable to fly to a range of 12 000 km.
On rockets of the third version the inter-tank instrumentation compartment was removed from the core stage (instruments were accommodated in a single section of the core stage nose), vernier thrusters of higher capacity and improved power supply system were introduced among other modifications.

 Space Transportation News of April 2002
A 212 version with a large Liquid Rocket Booster (actually a first stage with two LE-7A engines) is also under study to increase the payload capability to 7,500 kg to geoastationary transfer orbit but it could be replaced by an evolution of the 204 version with a widebody first stage (see April 6 for detail).
The failure of the first qualification static firing of a 40-ton solid rocket motor developed by GenCorp Aerojet to serve as strap-on booster for Lockheed Martin's Atlas 5 series of launchers, on March 15, was caused by a burn-through according to an independent review.
These studies will include simulation of the dynamics and separation path of the rocket stage relative to the aircraft and development of conceptual design of separation systems and separation trade studies such as varying wing loading for the rocket stages and varying flight conditions at separation.

 SA-7 GRAIL (9K32M Strela-2)
The SA-7a had a slant range of 3.6 km and a kill zone between 15 and 1500 meters in altitude, with a speed of about 430 meters per second (Mach 1.4).
Both the SA-7a and SA-7b are tail-chase missile systems, and its effectiveness depends on its ability to lock onto the heat source of low-flying fixed- and rotary-wing aircraft targets.
The SA-7a (9K32 Strela-2) was introduced for service in 1968, but was soon replaced by the SA-7b (9K32M Strela-2M) which became the most common production model.

 Kakuda Space Propulsion Laboratory - Turbopump Group
Therefore, in the research for reliability improvement of the LE-7A turbopump, we actively supported NASDA in a LE-7A liquid oxygen turbopump technical test using a high pressure liquid oxygen turbopump test facility or a LE-5B liquid oxygen turbopump technical test for the second engine of H-IIA Rocket.
Since a rocket turbopump sucks dangerous cryogenic liquid in at low pressure and sends it to the combustor rotating at high speed to be highly pressurized, it needs to be equipped with high performance bearings, seals and impellers.
Improvement in the performance of the turbopump in sucking propellants and in vapor-liquid two-phase can simplify the pressurization system of the propellant tank and reduce pressurized helium gas and also expand the possibility for designing of the tank system.

The FROG-7 (9K52 Luna), the final version of the FROG family, is an unguided, spin-stabilized, short-range, battlefield support artillery rocket.
The FROG-7A was first introduced in 1965 as a replacement for earlier FROG variants, some of which had been in service since the mid-1950s.
A very similar vehicle is also used with the FROG-7 system to transport the reserve rockets.

In 1947 the Navy contracted Sperry to build a beam-riding version of a standard 5-inch (127 mm) HVAR, the standard unguided aerial rocket, under Project Hotshot.
The AIM-7F, which entered service in 1976, had a dual-stage rocket motor for longer range, solid-state electronics for greatly improved reliability, and a larger warhead.
The original Sparrow I and aborted Sparrow II became the AIM-7A and AIM-7B, even though both were long gone from the inventory.

During the Cold War the most prominent short-range nuclear force [SNF] system at at the division level was the unguided free-rocket-over-ground (FROG), which in the Soviet Army was deployed in a battalion of four launchers.
The FROG-7A was first introduced in 1965 as a replacement for earlier FROG variants, some of which had been in service since the mid-1950s.
Another 215 FROG launchers were opposite China and in the Far East; some 100 were opposite Southwest Asia and eastern Turkey; and about 75 were in strategic reserve.

The RJ43-MA-11 was developed in supersonic wind tunnels at Marquardt's Van Nuys, CA test facility, flight tested on the Lockheed X-7A-3 at Holloman AFB, Alamogordo, NM, and deployed operationally on the Boeing Bomarc B and later on the Lockheed D-21 for USAF / CIA SR-71.
The Marquardt Jet Laboratory, building rocket thrusters at the Van Nuys plant, was sold to Kaiser Aerospace, while the Marquardt Manufacturing Company disappeared.
In 1949 Marquardt outgrew its Venice plant, and leased the former Timm Aircraft facility.

On July 12, STS-104 was launched with five crewmembers on assembly mission 7A to conduct joint operations with the Expedition 2 crew and, in three spacewalks, to install the Joint Airlock "Quest" and outfit it with four high-pressure gas tanks.
The ISS had its first permanent occupants in FY 2001, beginning with the launch of the Expedition 1 crew aboard a Russian Soyuz rocket on October 31, 2000.
The Expedition focus was on biomedical research and included studies of biological effects of space radiation, characterization of the ISS radiation environment, bone loss and spinal cord response during space flight, and interpersonal influences on crewmember and crew-ground interactions.
