Video: ISRO successfully tested world's third largest solid rocket booster

[ptltejas]

ISRO successfully tested world's third largest solid rocket booster S-200 for GSLV mk III. This is the second successful ground test of the booster.


S200 solid booster contains 200 tonnes of solid propellant in three segments. The motor measures 22 meter long and 3.2 meter in diameter. The design, development and successful realisation of S200 solid booster were a pure indigenous effort involving Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre, Thiruvananthapuram and Satish Shawan Space Centre (SDSC) at Sriharikota with the participation of Indian Industries.


You can see the thrust vectoring of the nozzle! The booster was fired for 130 seconds against actual requirements of 103 seconds.

THANKS AGAIN AND AGAIN.
ONE THING I notice is Such Booster rockets are look burning and smoke is seen from nozzles but force is not as required so they seperated even burning. that force is even not enough for bosteer to continue speed against gravity. so no booster or force to rocket. and speed is reduced and booster only go above due to previous velocilty. hence moment the force reduced rockets separated from rockets. even burning.

However Milestone is there. DRDO ISRO are going with kinetic speed/energy.........-))

Well said mate. Can you imagine, this booster is 4.5 times larger than Agni-V!!!!

I hope there is sharing in technology btwn ISRO and DRDO....!!!

Openly there is no sharing of technology now, India separated civil and military nuclear and space programmes. But I think they should.
