International Space Station 2013 : Epsilon Launch Vehicle 1997

2013 : Epsilon Launch Vehicle 2009 : International Space Station 1997:M-V Launch Vehicle 1955 : The First Launched Pencil Rocket Looking Ahead to Future Progress IHI Aerospace (IA) is carrying out the development, manufacture, and sales of rocket projectiles, and has been contributing in a big way to the indigenous space development in Japan. We started research on rocket projectiles in 1953. Now we have become a leading comprehensive manufacturer carrying out development and manufacture of rocket projectiles in Japan, and are active in a large number of fields such as rockets for scientific observation, rockets for launching practical satellites, and defense-related systems, etc. In the space science field, we cooperate with the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) to develop and manufacture various types of observational rockets named K (Kappa), L (Lambda), and S (Sounding), and the M (Mu) rockets. With the M rockets, we have contributed to the launch of many scientific satellites. In 2013, efforts resulted in the successful launch of an Epsilon Rocket prototype, a next-generation solid rocket which inherited the technologies of all the 2 aforementioned rockets. In the practical satellite booster rocket field, We cooperates with the JAXA and has responsibilities in the solid propellant field including rocket boosters, upper-stage motors in development of the N, H-I, H-II, and H-IIA H-IIB rockets. We have also achieved excellent results in development of rockets for material experiments and recovery systems, as well as the development of equipment for use in a space environment or experimentation. In the defense field, we have developed and manufactured a variety of rocket systems and rocket motors for guided missiles, playing an important role in Japanese defense. With our wealth of technological expertise accumulated to date, the company will further enhance research and development activities to prepare for the coming space utilization age represented by a space station, as well as boldly take on the new fields of FRP components for jet engines, robot systems and so forth, ultimately contributing to the realization of mankind's dreams and advancement of society. 3 Company Overview Company name : IHI AEROSPACE CO., LTD Head office : Toyosu IHI Bldg., 1-1, Toyosu 3-chome, Koto-ku, Tokyo, 135-0061, JAPAN Tel : +81-3-6204-8000 Fax : +81-3-6204-8810 http : www.ihi.co.jp/ia/ Paid in capital : ¥5 billion (Wholly-owned subsidiary of IHI) Details of business : Design, development, production, and sales of space equipment systems, defense rocket systems and other aerospace related products, etc. Employees : Approx. 1,000 Factories and facilities : Tomioka Plant (900, Fujiki, Tomioka-shi, Gunma, land area of about 490,000m2) History : 1924 : Aircraft engine plant of Nakajima Aircraft Industries Co., Ltd.
