The collection of scientific and technical articles Space Technology. Missile Armaments is a specialized professional publication that publishes new results of theoretical and experimental research and development in the field of aviation and space rocket technology.

The subject area of the Collection corresponds to the Mechanical Engineering and Machine-Building cluster (G8 Materials Science, G9 Applied Mechanics, G10 Metallurgy, G11 Industrial Engineering, and G12 Aviation, Rocket, and Space Technology).

The scope of the Collection covers the development and operation of state-of-the-art military missile and space launch systems, spacecraft, and satellite systems, as well as their components, including:

• Design and development of missile and ground-based systems.
• Design and development of components of space launch vehicles and combat missiles (liquid-propellant and solid-propellant rocket engines, propulsion systems, control systems, separation systems, payload equipment, etc.)
• Design and development of components for ground-based systems (facilities, fueling systems, prelaunch processing systems, etc.)
• Design and development of spacecraft and their components.
• Problems of aerodynamics, heat and mass transfer, flight theory, loading, and structural strength.
• Problems of efficiency, reliability, safety, and economic feasibility of space launch systems.
• Other aspects that are directly related to the development and operation of space launch systems.
• Other topics corresponding to the Mechanical Engineering and Manufacturing

The target audience is scientists, postgraduate students, and specialists whose scientific interests include achievements in aviation, rocket, and space technology (G12) and other specialties within the Mechanical Engineering and Machine-Building cluster (G8, G9, G10, and G11).

The Collection is included in the List of Scientific Professional Publications of Ukraine (category B) in accordance with Order No. 928 of the Ministry of Education and Science, dated June 11, 2026 (Appendix 5).
