  • Selection of Favorite Reusable Launch Vehicle Concepts by Using the Method of Pairwise Comparison
    Selection of Favorite Reusable Launch Vehicle Concepts by using the Method of Pairwise Comparison Robert A. Goehlich Keio University, Department of System Design Engineering, Ohkami Laboratory, 3-14-1 Hiyoshi, Kohoku-ku, Yokohama 223-8522, JAPAN, Mobile: +81-90-1767-1667, Fax: +81-45-566-1778 email: [email protected], Internet: www.Robert-Goehlich.de Abstract The attempt of this paper is to select promising Reusable Launch Vehicle (RLV) concepts by using a formal evaluation procedure. The vehicle system is divided into design features. Every design feature can have alternative characteristics. All combinations of design features and characteristics are compared pairwise with each other with respect to relative importance for a feasible vehicle concept as seen from technical, economic, and political aspects. This valuation process leads to a ranked list of design features for suborbital and orbital applications. The result is a theoretical optimized suborbital and orbital vehicle each. The method of pairwise comparison allows to determine not only ranking but also assessing the relative weight of each feature compared to others. Keywords: Pairwise Comparison, Reusable Launch Vehicle, Space Tourism Introduction The potential for an introduction of reusable launch vehicles is derived from an expected increasing demand for transportation of passengers in the decades to come. The assumed future satellite market does not justify to operate reusable launch vehicles only for satellites due to a low launch rate. Finding feasible vehicle concepts, which satisfy operator’s, passenger’s, and public’s needs, will be a challenging task. Since it is not possible to satisfy all space tourism markets by one vehicle, different vehicles that are capable to serve one particular segment (suborbital or orbital) are needed.

Interim Report Design, Cost, and Performance Analyses Executive Summary This report, jointly sponsored by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), is the result of a comprehensive study to explore the trade space of horizontal launch system concepts and identify potential near- and mid-term launch system concepts that are capable of delivering approximately 15,000 lbs to low Earth orbit. The Horizontal Launch Study (HLS) has produced a set of launch system concepts that meet this criterion and has identified potential subsonic flight test demonstrators. Based on the results of this study, DARPA has initiated a new program to explore horizontal launch concepts in more depth and to develop, build, and fly a flight test demonstrator that is on the path to reduce development risks for an operational horizontal take-off space launch system. The intent of this interim report is to extract salient results from the in-process HLS final report that will aid the potential proposers of the DARPA Airborne Launch Assist Space Access (ALASA) program. Near-term results are presented for a range of subsonic system concepts selected for their availability and relatively low development costs. This interim report provides an overview of the study background and assumptions, idealized concepts, point design concepts, and flight test demonstrator concepts. The final report, to be published later this year, will address more details of the study processes, a broader trade space matrix including concepts at higher speed regimes, operational analyses, benefits of targeted technology investments, expanded information on models, and detailed appendices and references.

  • Superjet International and Powerjet Announce the Completion of the First Ever Export Credit Financing for a Sukhoi Superjet 100
    SuperJet International and PowerJet announce the completion of the first ever export credit financing for a Sukhoi Superjet 100 February 10th, 2013 - The first ever export credit financing package for the Sukhoi Superjet 100 was completed in December 2013 at delivery of the fourth out of twenty Sukhoi Superjet 100 (SSJ100) regional jets ordered by the Mexican airline Interjet. The aircraft was financed through a multilateral export credit guaranteed by Coface, SACE and VEB for the French, Italian and Russian partners, respectively. It represents one of the first financing transactions wholly guaranteed by Coface, the French export credit agency (ECA), for a regional aircraft. It is a first also for SACE acting as a direct guarantor for an aircraft with a 100% guarantee. At the same time, it is also a first for the Russian government, as VEB financed the Russian part in collaboration with the French and Italian export credit agencies and following OECD international rules for aircraft export credit financing. “This first ECA financing was a major international landmark in our industry - said Nazario Cauceglia, CEO of SuperJet international - and our collaboration with PowerJet and its parent company Snecma (Safran) was invaluable. I am sure it will allow a vital boost for future international sales of the SSJ100. Offering our customers not just the most efficient aircraft in its class, but also a competitive financial package, is key factor to the success of this new program." Claude Poulain, CEO of PowerJet, SaM146 engine’s manufacturer, added: “Along with SuperJet International, we are delighted with the success of this first export credit financing.

  • Information on the Implementation of the Tax Free System in the Russian
    Information on the Implementation of the Tax Free System in the Russian Federation Dear guests of the Russian Federation, Since April 2018, the value-added tax refund system (Tax Free System) has been launched in the Russian Federation. To be eligible for a VAT refund, you must be a citizen of a foreign country outside of the Eurasian Economic Union (EEU – the Kyrgyz Republic, the Republic of Armenia, the Republic of Belarus, the Republic of Kazakhstan, the Russian Federation). To receive a tax-free service, you should purchase goods for no less than 10,000 roubles (___ in national currency), tax included, from a single retailer during one day at retailer locations approved by the Government of the Russian Federation. Certain retailers provide VAT refund services in the following cities: 1. Saransk (the Republic of Mordovia); 2. Kazan (the Republic of Tatarstan); 3. Sochi (Krasnodar Krai); 4. Volgograd (Volgograd Oblast); 5. Kaliningrad (Kaliningrad Oblast); 6. Krasnogorsk (Moscow Oblast); 7. Nizhny Novgorod (Nizhny Novgorod Oblast); 8. Rostov-on-Don (Rostov-on-Don Oblast); 9. Samara (Samara Oblast); 10. Ekaterinburg (Sverdlovsk Oblast); 11. Moscow; 12. Saint Petersburg. VAT refund is not applicable to excise goods, including alcohol and tobacco. To receive a refund, export your purchased goods through border crossings approved by the Government of the Russian Federation. 2 I. Road border crossings 1. Mamonovo-Grzechotki II.

  • Travel to Kaliningrad Region
    HOW TO GET THERE There are several ways that you can get to the Amber Region: By plane: the airport “Kaliningrad-Khrabrovo” provides flights to: Moscow, Saint Petersburg, Murmansk, Yekaterinburg, Sochi, Minsk (Belarus) and others. By train: the railway station “Kaliningrad passazhirsky” (passenger station in “Yuzhny” railway terminal) provides communication with such cities as: Moscow, Saint Petersburg, Chelyabinsk, Adler, Murmansk, and others. Some destinations are provided only in summer. Russian citizens are not allowed to go by the train without a valid facilitated transit document or visa. The duration of stay is no longer than 6 hours. Citizens of other countries have to get the transit information on their own: they have to be allowed to visit all EU and non-EU countries on the route (e.g. Belarus). By ferry: a duty-free cruise from Gdynia to Baltiysk is an international cruise to the neighbouring Kaliningrad. Ferry exit from Gdynia in the morning, departure from Baltiysk in the evening. Travel time 3 hours 30 minutes. By bus: Visitors are offered a regular bus service with several towns of Lithuania, Poland, Germany, Latvia, Estonia, Ukraine and Belarus (bus companies such as Ecolines and KoenigAuto provide these international services). By car or bicycle: Kaliningrad region has a developed hard surface road network. The speed on most of the roads in the Kaliningrad region is limited by 70 km/h because of the trees growing along the roads and posing a serious threat. The exception is the highway “Primorskoje Ring”, the main part of which has a speed limit of 90-110 km/h.
