Lot 62 Soviet Liquid Fuel Orientation Engine
An actual orientation liquid fuel engine (11D428A) complete with the fuel valve assembly that was used as a part of united engine installation with a thrust of 13.3 kg (mass – 1.2 kg) for the channels of pitch, yaw and roll. Engine and assembly measure approximately 12 x 5. Engine has a moveable mount (removable) extending over the beta cloth covered nozzle and yellow foam core insulation over the fuel valve assembly. Engine is affixed to a vertical mount with an informational plaque affixed to base. This engine was made for use on Zvezda—the core module of the International Space Station that provides living quarters and life support for the crew. It was originally intended for the Mir-2 space station, but when this project was canceled after the fall of the Soviet Union, it was amalgamated into the ISS instead.
