ISRO ready for nexGen vehicle, GSLV can launch 2.2 tonne satellites to GTO

India, which already has the capacity to launch 1700 kg to Sun Synchronous Polar Orbit (600 km) with its Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV), is all set to launch the next generation launch vehicle Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle (GSLV MkIII) with indigenous high thrust cryogenic stage to launch 4 tonne class of communication satellites to GTO.

The Indian Space Research Organization is all set to make the first developmental flight in the second quarter of 2017, the space minister Jitendra Singh told the Parliament. The development of Semicryogenic engine has also been undertaken to further enhance the GTO payload capability of GSLV MkIII to 6 tonnes.

ISRO's GSLV Mark-III launched Planned for First Week of June

The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) is planning to launch the GSLV Mark-III in the first week of June, ISRO Chairman AS Kiran Kumar said on Friday.

" GSLV Mark-III is our next launch. We are getting ready. All the systems are in Sriharikota. The integration is currently going on," he told reporters in Hyderabad while talking about Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle Mark-III.

"The whole process of assembling the various stages and then integrating the satellite into the heat shield, these activities are going on. First week of June is when we are targetting this launch," he said.

GSLV Mark-III would be a powerful launch vehicle built to lift heavy communications satellites to space.

In yet another major step towards being self reliant in the country's space programme and tap into opportunities in the global marketplace, the Indian Space Research Organisation will launch GSLV Mark III-D1 with a payload of four tonnes on June 5. “As on today, ISRO has the capability to launch payloads of up to 2.2 tonnes and anything above that it had to tap Ariane or other launch facilities. This will be a significant move from us,” the ISRO Chairman and Secretary, Department of Space, AS Kumar, said.
The Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle Mark III is a gamechanger capable of launching 4-tonne category of satellites from Sriharikota. It packs an Indian cryogenic third stage and higher payload as against the current GSLV. Apart from deploying advanced spacecraft technologies, the satellite would carry ka and ku- band payload along with a Geostationary Radiation Spectrometer that will help research space radiation.

All set for GSLV Mark III launch / fullstory

"Preparations are going on in full swing...And right now, the cryogenic stage (is) also integrated with the vehicle. The satellite is also getting prepared," Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre (VSSC) Director K Sivan told reporters here on the sidelines of a function. "Maybe in a week's time, we will be able to assemble the satellite along with the vehicle. We are targeting the launch in the first week of June," he said. However, Sivan said the exact date for the launch of GSLV Mark III is yet to be finalised.

Preparations for GSLV-MKIII launch are in full swing. This launch is going to take place from SDSC, SHAR in Nellore District.On Wednesday, the integration of all the three stages was completed at the Solid Stage Assembly Building connected to the 2nd launch pad. On 27th of this month, they are planning to move the vehicle to the launch pad. Through this rocket, GSAT-19 spacecraft weight 4.5 tonnes is going to be placed in orbit. In the mean while, ISRO has decided to launch PSLV-C38 on June-23rd from the first launch pad. As part of this,the integration of PSLV's second stage was completed On Thursday. Add of this, just after the completion of GSLv- MKIII launch on June-5, the integration of PSLV- C39 is to be started in SSAB. With this, ISRO plans to complete 3 launches in June.

Needs some corrections in the above news report

1. The Integration of third stage happened at VAB, only the core stage and booster stages were assembled together at SSAB.

2. PSLV-C39 integration will be starting at VAB only, not SSAB.
