doggie015 Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 (edited) Killed in actionAlthough it's kind of wierd since it's a military classification, I had figure KSP as a civilisan space programNot weird actually... If you do some reading you will see that the space program in real life started out in the military entirely (Heck, the first US astronaut rode an ICBM with the warhead replaced with a crew capsule! As did the first US orbital astronaut! (The capsule was lighter than the warhead it normally used so it had enough delta-V to get it into orbit! And AFAIK the russians (Who got the first human into orbit during the USSR days) used a purpose-built rocket)) Edited October 12, 2012 by doggie015 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Non-hostile events cannot cause KIA by definition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluekommeh Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 No but you can only be "Killed in action" if you die due to hostile attacks. Non-hostile events cannot cause KIA by definition.Action generally refers to the soldier or personnel's line of duty, so being killed during flight testing would be classified as KIA.

Enture Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 Both used modified ICBMs, the Soviets just had the advantage that their nukes weighed a whole lot more than their US equivalents, so they had the incentive to develop bigger rockets from the start.Soviet nuclear warheads didn't weight more, but the distance they had to cover from USSR to US territory was a very great one, counted in thousands of kilometres. The Americans had Air Force bases all around soviet territory, and their bombs mainly would've been carried and delivered by plane.But the fact remains, yeah: both the R7 Semiorka and the Atlas rockets are modified ICBMs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lesarthois Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 (edited) As were the first French rockets, derivated from German missiles; EOLE, Berenice; Veronique, Vesta the "precious gems" (Agathe, Topaze, Emeraude, Rubis, Saphir, and Diamand). All were part of a military program part of the "strike force"; though they never officially carried any weapon, but scientific experiences.Notable success were the first French/European lauch of living beings in 1961 (Hector the rat being the first one), and the first French satellite, Asterix, in 1965 (making France the third country able to put satellites in orbit). The programs were halted in the 70's when the Europa project became the Ariane project. Edited October 12, 2012 by Lesarthois Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
