About
Agnikul Cosmos developed the world first single-piece 3D-printed rocket engine — the Agnilet. Their Agnibaan launch vehicle is customisable and capable of reaching orbits up to 700 km.
Its first stage clusters 5–7 Agnilet engines, and it can place a ~100 kg payload into a 700 km orbit. The company emphasizes rapid launch turnaround (rocket ready in ~2 weeks) and a mobile launch pad named Dhanush (inaugurated Nov 2022) that is India's first privately built launch facility. Agnibaan's modular design allows customization of the engine cluster and payload capacity per customer. For suborbital missions, Agnikul's SOrTeD rocket is designed to reach ~90 km and carry up to ~30 kg of payload (suitable for microgravity or HEO tests).
