Thirty-one launches have already been made, all successfully, being four from the Alcantara Launch Center (CLA), in Maranhao, and twenty-seven from the Esrange Space Center, in Sweden. The platform is capable to perform experiments with application in satellites, space vehicles and in the pharmaceutic industry.
The technology transfer agreement will allow the continuity of the industrialization and commercialization of the VSB-30 with technological enhancements, besides boosting the development of internationally competitive national launcher vehicles for micro satellites.
Developed by IAE, result of the cooperation between Brazil and Germany, the VSB-30 is launched by a rail system, stabilized by fins and has bearing inductors that are activated when the vehicle leaves the rails. It has two stages of solid propulsion and carries scientific and technological loads up to 400 kilograms to an altitude of 270 kilometers enabling experiments in micro gravity environment for up to 6 minutes.
The VSB-30 is certified, qualified and considered safe, reliable and stable. Due to its characteristics, the VSB-30 has an excellent acceptance in the international scenario of orbital vehicles and becomes pioneer in the process of space technology transfer in Brazil.

Avibras Commercial Vice-President Leandro Villar, considers a privilege for the company to receive a product that is both successful and consolidated in the market. According to him, the initiative also fortifies the triple helix, a concept that points to a conjunct action between company, academia and government as the direction for technological innovation and economic development of the country. “With this program we want to amplify Brazil’s leadership in the space area, enhancing the Brazilian Space Program, and also generate employment”, highlighted Leandro.
