Iran's New Space Launcher: Zoljanah

Arms Control Wonk - Podcast tekijän mukaan Jeffrey Lewis & Aaron Stein

Kategoriat:

Iran unveiled a new (mostly) solid-propellant space launcher, the Zoljanah! But it looks....different than the other space launchers. Besides having a new fuel type, the Zoljanah may not have many IRGC or military fingerprints on it, indicating that the Iranian solid-propellant programs are robust and expansive. Jeffrey and Aaron talk Iranian space programs, civilian vs. military control of research programs, and, of course, why a solid-propellant launcher makes a difference.  Support us over at Patreon.com/acwpodcast!
