1/x. Sergei Pozdnyakov, general director of NPP Zvezda, the manufacturer of Russian spacesuits and shock-absorbing seats, gave an interview to TASS and shared some information about the plans for new generation of spacesuits. Here’s the quick summary for you. ⤵️
2/х. The new Sokol-M spacesuit as well as the Cheget shock-absorbing seat are designed specifically for #Oryol spacecraft and cannot be used in Soyuz-MS due to the difference in the life support system. The flight models will be ready when Oryol is ready to fly.
3/x. Another work in progress is the spacesuit to walk on the lunar surface. They have a concert and currently prepare a model for ergonomics tests. The lunar spacesuit will be modular, which allows to replace a module instead of sending the whole suite to Earth for repairs.
