Korean Air said on Friday it will develop a 3-ton engine for the upper part of a two-stage rocket by 2027 in cooperation with its consortium partners. The lower part will be equipped with a 75-ton engine used in Nuri, a three-stage indigenously developed launch vehicle.
Korean Air is responsible for engine system design, assembly and system management, and test certification.
Consortium partners include Vitzro Nextech, Hanyang ENG, Genohco, Korea Institute of Industrial Technology, Seoul National University, and Chungbuk National University.
Korean Air has a track record in the development of space rocket components. In 2012, the company participated in the development and assembly of Korea’s first space launch vehicle Naro (KSLV-I) and the development of 75-ton and 7-ton engines. It is also participating in Space Pioneer, a 211.5 billion won state project to localize key parts of a space rocket by 2030.
