About
HANBIT-Mini is INNOSPACE’s largest orbital launch vehicle, a three-stage rocket designed to deliver up to 1,300 kg to 500 km SSO. At 39.6 m tall and 3.7 m in diameter, it is the highest-capacity launcher in INNOSPACE’s lineup.
The first stage uses nine 25-ton-class (245 kN) hybrid engines burning paraffin/LOX, for a total first-stage thrust of approximately 2,205 kN. The second stage uses a single 245 kN hybrid engine with a 150-second burn. The third stage uses two methane/LOX engines (29 kN each) for precision orbital delivery with 350 s specific impulse. The vehicle combines INNOSPACE’s hybrid propulsion expertise with 3D-printed methane engine technology, targeting safety, low manufacturing cost, rapid production, and flexible launch scheduling.
