The Soyuz-FG launch vehicle is an improved version of the Soyuz-U from the R-7 family of rockets, designed and constructed by TsSKB-Progress in Samara, Russia. It made its maiden flight on 20 May 2001, carrying a Progress cargo spacecraft to the International Space Station (ISS).


Since 30 October 2002, Soyuz-FG has been the only vehicle used by the Russian Federal Space Agency to launch Soyuz-TMA and Soyuz-MS manned spacecraft to the ISS. The Soyuz-FG performed 64 successful launches until its first failure on 11 October 2018 with the Soyuz MS-10 mission.


Soyuz-FG can optionally fly with a Fregat upper stage, developed and produced by Lavochkin Association in Khimki. Launches of the Soyuz-FG/Fregat configuration are marketed by a European-Russian company called Starsem. Its maiden flight occurred on 2 June 2003. As of December 2014, there have been 10 launches of Soyuz-FG/Fregat with commercial payloads.[3]


The analog control system significantly limits the capabilities of this launcher, and it will eventually be replaced by Soyuz-2 in 2019.[6]


Soyuz-FG is launched from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan, from Gagarin's Start (pad LC-1/5) for manned missions, and from LC-31/6 for satellite launches with the Fregat variant.


On 1 November 2018, Russian scientists released a video recording of the Soyuz MS-10 manned spaceflight involving a Soyuz-FG rocket after launch on 11 October 2018 that, due to a faulty sensor, resulted in the destruction of the rocket. The crew, NASA astronaut Nick Hague and Russian cosmonaut Aleksey Ovchinin. escaped safely and successfully.[7]
