Moscow, March 27 /Xinhua/ — The first flight of a promising new-generation transport spacecraft is planned for 2028. This was announced by Sergei Krikalev, Deputy Director General for Manned Programs at the Roscosmos State Corporation, at the discussion panel "How to Manage Space: Modern Management Technologies" at the Russian Presidential Academy of National Economy and Public Administration (RANEPA) on Friday.

“According to current plans, this ship should begin space flights in 2028,” said S. Krikalev.

According to him, the ship has already undergone static and dynamic tests. Parachute tests are next, during which a model of the ship will be dropped from a helicopter.

S. Krikalev noted that the spacecraft is not being developed as a replacement for the currently flying Soyuz spacecraft. It will perform other missions, such as flying beyond Earth orbit.

The new spacecraft was previously known by the names "Federation" and "Eagle." Testing is also planned for flights to the Russian orbital station in 2028. –0–
