Angara · Khrunichev State Research and Production Space Center
Angara A5, is a Russian expendable heavy lift launch vehicle which consists of one URM-1 core and four URM-1 boosters, a 3.6-metre (12 ft) URM-2 second stage, and an upper stage, either the Briz-M, Blok DM-03 or the KVTK. Weighing 773 tonnes (1,704,000 lb) at lift-off, Angara A5 has a payload capacity of 24.5 tonnes (54,000 lb) to a 200 km (120 mi) x 60° orbit. Angara A5 is able to deliver 5.4 tonnes (12,000 lb) to GTO with Briz-M, or 7.5 tonnes (17,000 lb) to the same orbit with KVTK. Adding a kick stage increases the height of the rocket.
