Nacho84 -> RE: crew of UR-700 - two or three? (2/27/2017 3:41:20 AM)

Hello Marechal, Apologies for the delay, I only noticed your post today. I'm quite sure the crew for the LK-700 would have had a size of 2. The reference cited by wikipedia (link) doesn't say anything about a crew of three. The entry on Encyclopedia Astronautica quote:
says 'A crew of three would be possible on later missions after a better launch vehicle propellant utilization system was put into operation.' but at the bottom of the article it says: 'Crew Size: 2. Orbital Storage: 45 days. Spacecraft delta v: 9,061 m/s (29,727 ft/sec).', so I think it's safe to assume that the LK-700 would have comprised a crew of two. Hope this makes sense. Cheers,
