Fogtrein
Fogtrein, is the name given to a family of Brazilian research rockets created jointly by the Air Force Command (COMAer) and Avibras.[1]
The rockets are used for testing, qualification and training of teams in the Alcântara Launch Center (CLA) and the Barreira do Inferno Launch Center (CLBI).[2]
These vehicles are designed to be launched in adverse conditions such as high salinity, winds up to 10 m / s and rain up to 10 mm / h . All models will admit payloads (5 kg to 30 kg), with electric networks and telemetry equipment, along experiments of interest in the academic and scientific community.
