MOSCOW, August 6. /TASS/. The train with the Angara-A5 carrier rocket has arrived in Plesetsk. This was reported to TASS on Friday by a source in the rocket and space industry.

"The heavy carrier rocket" Angara-A5 "has arrived at the Plesetsk cosmodrome," the agency interlocutor said.

According to the source, the launch vehicle blocks are currently being unloaded.

Angara is a family of Russian launch vehicles from light to heavy class. Universal rocket blocks "Angara" are manufactured at the Omsk PO "Polet" (part of the M. V. Khrunichev Center of the state Corporation "Roscosmos"). The new family uses environmentally friendly fuel components. The first two launches of the heavy "Angara" took place on December 23, 2014 and December 14, 2020 from the Plesetsk cosmodrome.

In June, Roscosmos CEO Dmitry Rogozin said in an interview with TASS that four Angara launch vehicles will be delivered by the end of the year, but not all of them are planned to be launched by January 2022. Later, on the air of Komsomolskaya Pravda radio, he noted that work was underway to send another heavy "Angara" from the Khrunichev Center to prepare flight tests.
