[OKB-1] Niemand's Integration Facility #1 [Soviet and Russian crafts]

[Niemand303]

Hello, everyone! As many of us, I love mods. They make life easier, mostly, and provide a variety of parts. I love to recreate historical missions and it is much easier to do with mods. But we play KSP not because it is easy, but because it is hard.

So, that is why I present you komrade Niemand's Integration Facility #1! roll credits

I will do historical (and sometimes fictional/cancelled) ships and space stations, so you can fly Soviet style.

N-1/M3 Kerbiet Munar Komplex!

And my first craft is really influenced by Yukon's 100-parts N1L3.

My N1L3 has a double partcount, 200 parts exactly, costs 800k funds and features as close to history lander and orbital Soyuz as possible!

The first to stages are pretty much enough to get to the Mun (a little overpowered, yeah) LOK seats two with its brand "unmanned two-seater capsule" made with struts, OCTO probe core and two Mk1 pods. LK seats one, has additional batteries on its leg structure. So, have fun!

Soyuz 7K-OK, Progress and Soyuz launcher

This is a relatively low-part early Soyuz copy, featuring the same two-seater capsule and SM, but launched with a Soyuz rocket, which provides enough dV to get the craft to 200x200km orbit, where your Salyut stations should belong. 157 parts, 70k funds and Jeb's approval!

DOWNLOAD SOYUZ

Progress craft is a Soyuz-derived cargo ferry. 152 parts, 65k funds, 100 fuel units (0.5 tons) as cargo.

Salyut station series and Proton launcher

Another in low-part series, a 168-part (145 of them is the launcher) Salyut-1 with Proton launcher! Solar panels, Soyuz-derived propulsion block, a lab and two antennas included!

Launch your own very first space station in style! Contains storage for 240 monoprop units in radial tanks and costs 95k funds!

DOWNLOAD SALYUT-1

A Salyut-derived military space station, OPS Almaz is equipped with an observation outpost. The craft consists of 183 parts (145 of them is the launcher), costs 100k funds and is capable to provide habitation to 7 kerbals at a time, though it has only one docking port. Not many photos are presented, because it's a top secret, shhh!

DOWNLOAD SALYUT-2/3/5 (OPS ALMAZ)

Salyut-4 is an advanced station, containing even a material bay! More Science! More antennas! Bigger panels! 170 parts, 105k funds and lot of fun!

DOWNLOAD SALYUT-4

Salyut-6 and Salyut-7 are first second generation stations in the world, famous for setting records of lifetime in orbit. Salyut-6 is 162 parts, Salyut-7 is 169 parts.

TKS on Proton

Javascript is disabled. View full album

TKS means Heavy Transport Craft. And it is true. It can carry up to 4 tons (800 units) of fuel as cargo. It is the first craft in the pack to surpass the 200-part-standart with 203 parts and a cost of 128k funds.

N.B.:

1) The engines of FCB are mounted against the direction of other engines, so after separation be sure to set control from the docking port;

2) Proton can't carry fully-loaded TKS to orbit, you have 1200 Monoprop in radial tanks to manoeuvre in orbit;

3) Return engines won't send the capsule inside the atmosphere if the orbit is higher than 180x180.

PPTS + Angara(ish)

Javascript is disabled. View full album

A pinnacle of modern technologies, the PPTS orbiter and Angara reusable rocket! This is 151 parts craft, which replicates such awesome PPTS features as parachute-assisted powered landing (you can land only on parachutes, but the thrusters reduce greatly the landing speed), heatshield landing legs (alpha feature, may break themselves under weird circumstances).

costs only 85k funds and is really high-tech!

Nice,

what kind of TWR does the 1st stage have?

[Niemand303]

Nice,

what kind of TWR does the 1st stage have?

Haven't actually looked, but according to G-meter around 2.5 on take-off with full thrust.

[Mad Rocket Scientist]

Thanks!

[Niemand303]

Updated the post with the low-part 7K-OK Soyuz, providing all the necessary for your near-Kerbin needs.

EDIT: And a Salyut-1 as well.

Very nice, I like the N1-M3's second stage, in that it isn''t a cacaphony of struts.

Good job!

Thanks! Added also a PPTS, for high-tech needs.

Nice PPTS Niemand. Would it be possible to add the soft-landing system?

edit: nvm, didn't notice it.

- - - Updated - - -

And if you like N1s you might want to check this out.

Yes shameless advertising here.

Thanks! Yeah, the system works so-so, but it is possible to land without legs yet.

That N-1 is monstrous!

The part count is really insane eve for my PC, although it looks very beautiful.

Also, added Progress craft and other Salyut stations.

EDIT: TKS added too, only Mir and ISS left.

Meet a new member of NIF-1, to celebrate its incorporation into OKB-1:

THE SPIRAL SHUTTLE!

Seats 2 pilots, has a solar panel on its belly, 135 units of Monoprop and launched on top of Soyuz.

It glides like feather! On take-off, though, I'd recommend going straight up until 15 or even 20 km.
