It'll take so long because it first needs a flying Souyz-5 (they become the boosters), and a heavy Angara-A5V (Yenisei uses Angara's hydrogen upper stage). Oh, and they haven't even started building a launch pad for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand You know it can shoot guns, right? Double-wield, even. And there’s NO US cargo going up on this launch, either. This is starting to sound more and more like the plot to some sci-fi horror movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultimate Steve Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 Sending a Russian robot that can hold and accurately shoot not one but two guns to the most expensive research base ever can't go wrong, not at all. Iirc there are or were guns in the soyuz spacecraft in case of a landing in an area with bears. They may have been taken out a while ago though.

Expand The former TP-82 Reveal hidden contents had been replaced with usual PM Reveal hidden contents (to shoot eight bears per load instead of just two three it's three-barrelled). Two Soyuzes, two PMs. F-850 can use two at once. At last somebody can defend the base from alien invaders.
