Rokot
Rokot (Rusia: Рокот berarti Rumble), juga diterjemahkan Rockot, adalah sebuah peluncuran kendaraan ruang angkasa Rusia yang bisa meluncurkan muatan 1.950 kilogram menjadi 200 kilometer orbit tinggi Earth dengan kemiringan 63°. Ini adalah turunan dari rudal balistik antar benua (ICBM) UR-100N (SS-19 Stiletto), disediakan dan dioperasikan oleh Eurockot Launch Services.
Peluncuran pertama kali dimulai pada tahun 1990 dari Kosmodrom Baikonur dari silo. Kemudian peluncuran komersial dimulai dari Kosmodrom Plesetsk menggunakan jalan peluncuran khusus dibangun kembali dari satu untuk roket Kosmos-3M. Biaya peluncur itu sendiri adalah sekitar 15 juta pada tahun 1999;[1][2] Eurockot kontrak terakhir dengan ESA untuk meluncurkan Swarm pada September 2013 adalah senilai € 27.100.000 ($ 36.000.000).[3]
