Strategic Rocket Forces
Strategic Rocket Forces is a government launch operator based in Russia, founded in 1959. The register credits it with 15 launches flown under its own name — 12 successful, 3 failed, a lifetime success rate of 80.0%. It is not flying anything inside the current manifest window.
Flight record
Launch statistics
Counts are launches filed under RVSN RF’s own name in The Space Devs’ Launch Library register. They are not a count of missions or payloads: a spacecraft that flew on a contracted vehicle is credited to the operator that flew it.
Who flies for them, and who they fly for
An operator owns the rocket and runs the count, and it is the operator’s name the launch schedule filters by. A customer funds the mission, supplies the payload and buys the ride. Plenty of organisations are both. RVSN RF is counted below in whichever role the current manifest actually gives it.
Manifest role
No scheduled flight in the current window names RVSN RF while being operated by somebody else.
How this is counted: a scheduled launch is treated as a customer flight when this organisation’s name or abbreviation appears in the launch name, mission name or programme and somebody else is flying it. Mission descriptions are not searched, and the window is one batch of the next launches worldwide, reaching to 2026-12-31 00:00:00Z — so both counts are a floor, not a complete manifest.

Manifest
RVSN RF is not flying anything inside the current manifest window, which reaches to 2026-12-31 00:00:00Z. Missions appear here the moment a launch date is published.
All upcoming launches“T-0 known to” is the register’s own precision on the launch time — a date good only to the month is shown as such rather than counted down as if it were exact. A go-probability appears only where the operator published one for that flight; Delta-V does not calculate it and it is not a forecast made here.

- Does Strategic Rocket Forces fly its own rockets, or buy launches from another operator?
- Strategic Rocket Forces has 15 launches flown under its own name in the launch register. It is not the operator on any flight in the current manifest window. An operator owns the rocket and runs the count; a customer funds the mission, supplies the payload and buys the ride. The operator filter on the launch schedule lists only the former, which is why a well-known agency can be central to a flight and still not appear on it.
