Fogtrein

Fogtrein, is the name given to a family of Brazilian research rockets created jointly by the Air Force Command (COMAer) and Avibras.[1]

Brazilian Training rockets FTB and FTI

The rockets are used for testing, qualification and training of teams in the Alcântara Launch Center (CLA) and the Barreira do Inferno Launch Center (CLBI).[2]

These vehicles are designed to be launched in adverse conditions such as high salinity, winds up to 10 m / s and rain up to 10 mm / h . All models will admit payloads (5 kg to 30 kg), with electric networks and telemetry equipment, along experiments of interest in the academic and scientific community.
