Africa-Press – Mauritius. <\/strong><\/span>Russia\u2019s new generation Kondor-FKA-M radar satellites will be capable of taking images of the Earth\u2019s surface at a resolution of up to half a meter (1.6 feet) in detailed imagery, Alexei Rabochiy, the chief designer at the NPO Mashinostroyenia space and rocket company, has told Sputnik.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe main and most interesting modernization is the change of radar geometry to an oblique-cutting option and the replacement of the horn radiator with an irradiator with an active antenna-feeder array,\u201d Rabochiy said.<\/p>\n

He added that the space platform\u2019s disposable power and radar energy characteristics would also be increased on the new generation spacecraft, which should significantly improve the characteristics of the received radar images. The Kondor-FKA-M satellite to search for natural resources is expected to be launched into orbit in 2025.<\/p>\n

NPO Mashinostroyeniya design bureau Director General and Designer General Alexander Leonov has earlier said that the launch dates of the aircraft were unknown due to constant budget sequestration of Russian space corporation Roscosmos, but the development of the satellite continues.<\/p>\n

On May 27, the first Kondor-FKA radar satellite will be launched on a Soyuz-2.1a rocket from the Vostochny Cosmodrome. The system will consist of two satellites, with the second one scheduled to be launched in the summer of 2024.<\/p>\n
