Re: Isro rlv
Reusable Launch Vehicle – Technology Demonstrator (RLV-TD) is one of the most technologically challenging endeavors of ISRO. The configuration of RLV-TD is similar to that of an aircraft and combines the complexity of both launch vehicles and aircraft. RLV-TD consists of a fuselage (body), a nose cap, double delta wings and twin vertical tails. It also features symmetrically placed active control surfaces called Elevons and Rudder. This technology demonstrator was boosted to Mach no: 5 by a conventional solid booster (HS9) designed for low burn rate. The selection of materials like special alloys, composites and insulation materials for developing an RLV-TD and the crafting of its parts is very complex and demands highly skilled manpower. Many high technology machinery and test equipment were utilised for building this vehicle. Objectives of RLV-TD: Hypersonic aero thermodynamic characterisation of wing body Integrated flight management Evaluation of autonomous Navigation, Guidance and Control (NGC) schemes Thermal Protection System Evaluation Reusable Launch Vehicle – Technology Demonstrator (RLV-TD)- ![]() |
