Abstract Study of configurations of superlight class of ILV which allows to launch micro- and nanosatellites into required orbits and to essentially reduce costs of a single mission (as compared to injection by more heavier ILV) was made by Yuzhnoye SDO within research works. The study was based on using prospective technologies, particularly structures made of carbon-filled plastic and onboard avionics on the basis of the up-to-date microelectronic technologies. In line with modern requirements regarding development of ecologically friendly rocketry, liquid oxygen and kerosene are used as ILV propellants. The report includes different options and peculiarities of superlight ILVs currently under development at Yuzhnoye.
