A KSP standard compliant launch vehicle which is optically close to Energija is included in the mod CSA Contares RUS under the name "KRAFT" for the central stage and "KERLOT" for the boosters. The booster rescue system has not yet been implemented. But with the existing components the carrier rocket projects Vulkan and Energija-M can be created.

There are usable Buran models from other modders which can be adapted to the scale used by CSA Contares with some knowledge of KSP technology.

In view of undocumented changes to the atmosphere model and the routines for aerodynamic behavior with almost every patch, as well as the fact that KSP as a flight simulator, even using some ambitious mods, fails smoothly, CSA Contares will not create any further aircraft-like projects.

The existing models will be revised in the near future and depending on the result will be continued or retired.

Albeit very slowly, it continues. At the moment, the landing system of the VA capsule is being tested. This is a double parachute with a solid propellant set with 4 nozzles suspended between the parachutes and the capsule, which, when ignited just above the ground, slows down the residual speed considerably. This landing system has already been used with Voskhod.
