AGNIBAAN
Agnibaan is a fully indigenous, orbital-class launch vehicle designed to deliver small satellites to low Earth orbit (LEO) on demand. At the heart of Agnibaan is Agnilet, the world’s first single-piece 3D printed engine, designed and manufactured entirely in-house. Agnibaan is built around satellite needs, allowing each mission to be customized without being limited by the rocket.
First Stage
Agnibaan is a customisable vehicle. When we were at the drawing board, we carefully analysed what our customers really needed. We then engineered enough flexibility into the vehicle while carefully designing to ensure reliability. Removing a few engines and flying is more involved than it sounds. We had to confirm that parameters including vehicle controllability, stability, lift-off thrust-to-weight ratio made sense for each of these versions.
Optional Baby Stage
An optional baby stage sits inside the payload fairing with an envelope large enough for almost all satellite needs.
Second Stage
Our second stage is powered by Agnite vacuum optimised engine. Agnite is the same engine that powers our first stage as well. Running an electric pump fed engine offers greater and finer propellant utilisation techniques to enhance payload capacity. These engines are allow for simplified engine design and highly configurable engine clustering architectures. The entire combustion section here is a single-piece assembly and 100% 3D printed.
SOrTeD
Agnibaan SOrTeD is a sub-orbital launch vehicle designed for low-altitude missions. It can carry payloads of up to 30 kg. Initially developed as a technology demonstrator, the vehicle has become a standalone product following the successful completion of Mission-01. SOrTeD offers a reliable way to reach near-space environments for experimentation and validation.
Nose Cone
Fully made with carbon composite, the nose cone protects the packages from harsh conditions prompted by flight.
Composite-Overwrapped Pressure Vessel
Multiple Composite-Overwrapped Pressure Vessels (COPV) hold Nitrogen and Helium at high pressure to operate the Reaction Control System (RCS) and to pressurise the LOX and ATF tanks.
Avionics Hub
The avionics hub holds all the avionic packages. All of our packages are designed and developed in-house.
Liquid Oxygen Tank
The Liquid Oxygen tank is a non insulated aluminium tank holding subcooled liquid oxygen.
Flight Termination System
Agnibaan SOrTeD is the first private vehicle from India using ISRO's packages for the flight termination system.
Intertank
The intertank structure connects the ATF and LOX tanks, and holds the ATF pressurant tanks. It is made of aluminium stiffeners with carbon composite cover panels.
Aviation Turbine Fuel Tank
The Aviation Turbine Fuel tank is a non insulated aluminium tank holding readily available aviation grade fuel.
Fins
4 fins fully made with carbon composite for passive control.
Base Shroud
Base shroud houses the world's first single piece 3D printed semi-cryogenic patented rocket engine, Agnilet, that can propel the vehicle with its 6.2kN thrust capacity.
