Per http://www.cbsnews.com/network/news/space/home/flightdata/calendar.html the launch of Soyuz TMA-11M is planned at 04:08 UTC on November 7 and the launch of Progress M-21M is planned at 22:39 UTC on November 20. The launch time are provisional - in fact one Russian-in-the-know commented that future ISS re-boosts would move the launch times to around 04:14 and 22:50 respectively.

Popovkin said that Soyuz spacecraft will fly on Soyuz-FG rockets till 2020 and the first Progress spacecraft will fly on Soyuz-2-1A rocket at the end of 2014.

anik, is the Soyuz-FG rocket still in production? If not, then how many are in storage?

Can I politely ask that when people post non-English quotations they provide at least a summary English translation (depending on the length of the quote), please?   Not everyone can translate Russian or Chinese, etc, etc.

Thank you!

please correct me, if i am wrong...

The price is fixed per year; and on their government website you can access the documents tab that includes the breakdown. I put the year price here.

http://forum.nasaspaceflight.com/index.php?topic=17286.msg1052136#msg1052136

That’s the price for the rocket. Does not include transportation to the launch site or launch campaign.
Soyuz rockets should be able to be stored for 6½ years before being launched.

3.2. Гарантийный срок хранения и эксплуатации РН 11А511У-ФГ и 11А511У должен составлять 6,5 лет.

Can I politely ask that when people post non-English quotations they provide at least a summary English translation (depending on the length of the quote), please?   Not everyone can translate Russian or Chinese, etc, etc.

Thank you!

Sorry for that, I was trying to point out that Soyuz-U have a 6½ year storage life, so the Soyuz-U manufactured in 2020 will be available to at least mid-2026.

But the last of these ordered Soyuz-U will be launched in February 2017 (Progress M №437).

But should be good until 2022; if the launch site can still support.

By August 22, Russian officials finalized launch windows and the flight order for most missions of the Proton rocket for the remainder of 2013, the project officials told RussianSpaceWeb.com. After the planned return-to-flight launch on Sept. 15, Proton was scheduled to launch a Sirius XM Radio commercial satellite and a classified Russian military satellite in October. The classified payload is believed to be Globus satellite designed for military communications. It would likely have ability to relay data from Russian military spy satellites to ground stations, while they fly out of direct contact with their mission control. A commercial mission delivering an Inmarsat satellite would follow in November.

As this site reported before, a high-priority mission to deliver a pair of Russian communications satellites designed to support Winter Olympics in Sochi was inserted into the manifest. It is currently scheduled for the beginning of December.

The Proton's 2013 launch schedule would be concluded with another launch at the end of December. The rocket will carry either Russian Ekspress AM5 satellite or Turksat-4A communications satellite for Turkey. The payload which would ultimately be bumped off this mission would have another opportunity to fly at the end of January or beginning of February 2014.

During another series of meetings in November or December, Proton officials plan to add another batch of missions to the rocket manifest in 2014.

Proton launch manifest as of Aug. 22, 2013:

    Launch date                                               Payload

1    Sept. 15                                                        Astra-2E

2    Oct. 9                                                           Sirius XM Radio FM6

3    Oct. 22                                                          A classified Russian federal payload (likely a Globus comsat)

4   3rd week of November                                       Inmarsat 5F1

5   1st week of December                                       Ekspress AT1/AT2

6   Last week of December                                     Either Ekspress AM5 or Turksat-4A
