Soviet Rocket Corps

Soviet Rocket Corps is a Soviet Union-based corporation introduced in .
== Overview ==
Under the Gorborev regime, the Strategic Soviet Rocket Corps was rapidly demobilized from a military to a civilian status. In a brilliant move, the SRC refitted nearly 4096 of its MIRV missile fleet to heavy pay-load carriers, leasing them to the ESA and other nations. With the best heavy lifting vehicles and the largest body of data on long-term man-in-space projects, the Soviets were able to trade themselves into the current space frontier boom. They sold advertising on spacesuits, set up construction projects, and eventually established KOSMOSOV, the state-operated heavy lifting vehicle combine.
Trading for ESA technical information, the SRC also built up a moderate military presence with orbital stations, spy and laser sats, battle sats and ground laser arrays. Much of the huge laser complex at Sary Shagan has been converted to laser-lift vehicle support, but can be reconverted within 72 hours. Many of the USSR's older nuclear missiles were sold outright to Japan, Argentina, and the EEC to boost payloads into orbit.
The biggest payload lifters into orbit, the Sovs also have the most long-term man-in-space experience. The SRC couldn't build a deep space probe, but could build the basic life support systems and boost them into orbit easily.
