“Rockets produced by the state corporation will be launched 45 times this
year, according to the schedule. That number includes both the launch of space
rockets and ballistic (missile) test-firing,” he said, adding that “out of 45 planned
launches 32 will be space rockets with various space vehicles and spacecraft.”
