The Cyclone-1M is a lightweight liquid-propellant launch vehicle designed to deliver payloads into low Earth orbits, including sun-synchronous orbits.
The Cyclone-1M will be launched both from a space launch center located in Ukraine and from foreign space launch centers.
Cyclone-1M lightweight launch vehicle. The Cyclone-1M is also developed based on an RD870 engine, but it uses considerable innovation requiring additional development. In particular, a major part of the launch vehicle bearing structure will be made of carbon-based polymer composites, new engines will be developed for the second and third stages, weight of the onboard avionics will be reduced, and commercial off-the-shelf components will be used.
