"The fulfillment of the works for creating the Angara space rocket compound planned before 2025 will make it possible to carry out up to 20 launches of Angara light and heavy carrier rockets annually and to ensure Russia’s guaranteed independent access and permanent presence in outer space," the defense chief said while inspecting the Angara space rocket compound's readiness for launches and hearing the reports by the command of the Aerospace Force.
