Hey hey notification squad! Sorry for my crackling voice on this one, recorded audio several days after drinking every single cocktail from the bar menu... Who could even guess the side effects then xD Here is the link to craft on Kerbal X! kerbalx.com/Yakez/RVLTS-KIR-labs
The Soviet Union was a great country with a lot of innovation and scientists. It was also the only country together with Mexico that helped my country, Spain during the civil war. It is a shame that it doesnt exist anymore. Great video!
¡Gracias! La Unión Soviética era un buen lugar para la ciencia y la ingeniería, no tanto para el lujo. Mis abuelos eran como los típicos ingenieros soviéticos y les gustaban mucho los viejos tiempos. ¡Apuesto a que mis inspiraciones espaciales y científicas provienen de su guía!
@@Yakez42 Quien quiere lujo cuando tienes comida, luz, agua y calefación en invierno aseguradas. Donde yo vivo los tres primeros les sale caro a mi familia y lo último ni tenemos. Me alegro que tus abuelos fuesen ingenieros! Yo actualmente estoy estudiando geología pero la ingenieria siempre me ha interesado solo que nunca he sido muy bueno en matematicas como para meterme a esa carrera. Un saludo!
¡Sí, y la educación gratuita para todos los que pudieron aprobar los exámenes fue un gran beneficio! Me gustaba mucho la geología, la geografía y la cartografía cuando era niño. ¡Buena suerte con sus estudios!
Wonderful video and very cool design and history. A similar early US study was called "PLAME" or “Propulsive Lift Landing Aid for Entry Vehicles” (keywords for a search :) ) which used a dedicated landing "jet" engine to avoid the excessive number of parachutes this design would have required. (An acknowledged issue by the designers) Thanks for the work.
Reminds me of Rogallo wing! Never actually saw anything about Propulsive lift capsules, thanks for the mentioning, was a good read! Would be Kerbalising it xD
@@Yakez42 I got 'here' from one of your other videos on an SSTO that used ducted fans for extra lift from Eve so ya, I can see you doing something like that for propulsive lift in Kerbal :)
Energia - Buran are one of my favorite lifters... shame it never became a "regular" rocket launch and the project died :( 1:25 cursed Energia? Why it have the Shuttle placement engine? 1:45 aaah oke oke it was the first variant (of the Energia like) 2:40 then the second design where they moved the 3 engine under the rocket and left one under the space plane... but in the third instance they changed completely adding the 4th engine and leaving on the Buran only the two engine for orbital manouver anyway... never heard of that spaceplane that you recreated in the video! well done 👏 12:05 lol the craft in the and was happy :D
Yea it is funny, like I have seen test model of Buran in Gorky Park Moscow hundreds of times during 1990s, numerous Russian documentaries, even bunch of English YT videos covering it. But nobody really dig deep into engine layout evolution. Stuff is pretty much exclusive to 1 website and books in Russian.
Could this concept be apply to the N1 rocket? Would be cool if you’d could make a space shuttle to fit on a N1 rocket Maybe call it the baikal reusable launcher.
In the first draft this exact orbiter was intended for N1! But considering failure of N1, they decided to make new launch system, scrapping N1 altogether. Btw Baikal was the name of one of 5 Buran spaceplanes! By 1993 Buran flown 1 orbital flight, Burya (Storm) was 95% ready, Baikal was 50% ready, and other 2 were scrapped on initial stages.
Точно не на этом канале. Русскоговорящая аудитория моего канала 4-5%. Мои видео требуют десятки часов вложенной работы, так что пока только на дефолтном языке.
