Capability profile

R-series launch vehicles and E-1 methalox engine

CRC is developing a shared launch architecture built around the one-engine R-1 technical pathfinder, the seven-engine R-2 medium-lift concept and the E-1 LOX-methane gas-generator engine. Public payload and thrust targets are changing and conflict across current sources; no reviewed record establishes a completed full-engine hot-fire, launch licence, flight or operational launch service.
