Work has been completed on the installation and commissioning of the Monitoring System for Engineering (Load-Bearing) Structures, Hazardous Natural Processes and Phenomena (MSIK) at the facility "Construction of the Launch Complex of the Angara Space

The MSIK allows real-time monitoring of changes in the deformation state of the facility's supporting structures. In the event of deviation of the measured indicators from the standard values by an amount greater than the established value (Monitoring Passport), this information is automatically transferred to the Facility's DDS and the daily management bodies of the Unified State System for the Prevention and Elimination of Emergencies (RSChS).

* Site 1A is a launch complex at the Vostochny Cosmodrome with one launcher, allowing up to 10 launches per year of the Angara family of light and heavy launch vehicles.
