S7 Space to modernize Sea Launch floating spaceport for reusable rocket
MOSCOW, November 7. /TASS/. S7 Space plans to modernize the Sea Launch floating spaceport after switching to the launches of its reusable rocket from it, Company CEO Sergei Sopov told TASS on Wednesday.
"The spaceport will be modernized for the new carrier rocket," he said.
"Today all the equipment on the command vessel and the launching platform has become obsolete," the chief executive said.

"Non-reusable rockets have become uncompetitive and a private company has no chance to survive on the space launch market without reusable vehicles today," he said.
"Without it [the reusable carrier], we simply won't be able to survive on the commercial market. It is not even funny to compete with reusable and cheap offers entering the market with a non-reusable carrier," he said.
