STATIC FIRE VEHICLE<\/span><\/h2>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

The first rocket ever built was meant only for static fire tests. When a static fire test is conducted, the rocket is free to rotate around its center of mass. This method of testing was essential in proving that the rocket could keep itself stable before flight tests.<\/span><\/p>\n

TVC LANDING VEHICLE<\/h2>\n

<\/h2>\n

This rocket’s purpose was to reach an apogee of approximately 16 meters and demonstrate propulsive landing capabilities. It was equipped with more advanced software compared to previous TVC rockets and featured sophisticated landing legs with dampeners for smooth touchdown.<\/p>\n
