Moscow. May 24. INTERFAX-NPO Energomash has completed a series of tests of the engine for the Orel manned spacecraft, they confirmed the planned service life, Roscosmos reported.

"At the moment, the climatic, corrosion and fire resource tests of three copies of the engine have been completed, which experimentally confirmed the assigned service life - 7 years, including 560 days of flight operation in space," said the Deputy Chief Designer for Operation and Testing of NIIMash (part of Energomash") Vladimir Murkin, whose words are quoted in the state corporation.

As noted in the message, 30 "modal models" of the engine for vibrodynamic and thermal vacuum tests, as well as 16 copies of the bench version of the MVSK02-01 engine, specially designed for fire bench tests, have already been delivered to the Rocket and Space Corporation Energia.

In April, the head of Roscosmos, Dmitry Rogozin, said that the first flight of the Eagle could take place not to the ISS, but to the new Russian orbital station.

On February 20, Rogozin reported that ground tests of the ship will begin before the end of the month.

The spacecraft "Eagle" can be part of the complex for flights to other planets or asteroids, said earlier the chief designer of the ship Igor Khamits.

Currently, Russia is developing a reusable ship " Eagle "as part of the development work"Federation". The first flight of the ship without a crew is scheduled for 2023, with a crew - for 2025. The ship is designed to deliver people and cargo to space stations in near-Earth orbit, and is also one of the key elements of the existing concept of lunar exploration. To create it, technologies are used that sometimes have no analogues in the world of cosmonautics.
