Atmospheric Entry
We are completing R&D on capsules, TPS and ADS systems for use in Mars entry and Earth re-entry.
Fairing recovery
Project Remora
Raven Dynamics Ltd. has secured significant funding for our upcoming project.
- The consortium, which includes partners QinetiQ and University of Worcester, was recently awarded £268K as part of the High Altitude Intelligence: Cross Sector Innovation Challenge run by Innovate UK.
- As part of this consortium, Raven Dynamics Ltd. will be taking on the critical task of designing the Jettison Protection System (JPS) for assets employed on Zephyr and other High Altitude Pseudo-Satellite (HAPS) platforms. This is an exciting opportunity for us to leverage our expertise in designing innovative and reliable recovery systems.
