Buran (USSR)

This is a size and preformance accurate replica of the buran space plane by the USSR

The Buran is a copy of the space shuttle made by the USSR in the cold war, it flew opnly once before the program was cancled due to loss of funding, the shuttle has the same uses and flight style as the american space shuttle , but does some things diffirently.

diffirences include: shorter overall, slightly larger payload bay, higher payload to orbit, higher returning payload, and an entirely difirent launch vehicle, unlike the space shuttle the buran relied on its launch vehicle, the energia, to do all the heavy lifting, the shuttle only used its engines for orbital manuvers.

The space shuttle parts in the stock game are not the correct sizes for either spoace shuttle, so i built a larger cockpit and cargo bay.

FULLY STOCK , does require the robotics DLC.

A version of the Buran on the Energia rocket can be found in my collection.
