According to Borisov, engineers have already begun working on the first Russian project for a reusable methane rocket of the medium class, named "Amur-SPG." It will feature a recoverable first stage and will launch from the Vostochny Cosmodrome in the Amur region.
Previously, the head of the state corporation stated that the reusable rocket "Amur-SPG" could be used between 50 and 100 times, which is significantly higher than the Falcon 9 by SpaceX, with which it will be compared.
