It is being developed within the framework of the federal target program "Creation of a super-heavy class space rocket complex".
[7] Accelerating braking unit:[clarification needed] Block DM[7] Flight tests of a super-heavy launch vehicle will take place in two stages from 2028 to 2035.
It involves the launch of a crewed spacecraft, a lunar take-off and landing complex (LVPK) and other payloads on the trajectory of the flight around the Moon and circumlunar orbits in order to work out the elements of a crewed complex, create a station in the orbit of the Moon, and land on the lunar surface.
It is planned to launch LVPK and other uncrewed payloads for the construction and operation of a base on the lunar surface.
The super-heavy rocket is supposed to be used in the Russian lunar program, since the carrying capacity of the Angara-A5V launch vehicle (37.5 tons to LEO) is insufficient for these purposes.
