VSSC, ISRO posted an EoI [in 2022] for realizing Carbon-Carbon composites for various projects for a period of next 3 years: https://www.isro.gov.in/media_isro/pdf/Tenders/2022/EOI-%20GOCO%20DOCUMENT.pdfQuoteVSSC is planning to involve technically suitable and competent vendors for realization of Carbon–Carbon composite products for VSSC/ISRO programs. The purpose of this Expression of Interest(EoI) is to invite proposals from the potential vendors towards realization of various Carbon – Carbon products by operating and daily up keep of process facilities as mentioned in Section 6.0 through GOCO mode for 3 years. On evaluation of EoI, an RFP will be released to the shortlisted vendors.1) 4D C-C blocks for CES motors of Gaganyaan - Quantity 300 nos2) 4D C-C blocks for Leading edges for HAVA & RLV-ORV - Qty 110 nos3) 2D C-C shaped components for RLV – ORV (Thin shells) - Qty 20 nos4) 2D C-C shaped components for RLV – ORV (Thick shells/Nose cap) - Qty 5 nos5) CVD SiC coating on C-C leading edges - Qty 5 nos6) CVD SiC coating on C-C/ SiC components for space mirror - Qty 20 nos

RLV Orbital re-entry Experiment (ORE)Now ISRO is working on ORE. In ORE, a wing body called Orbital Re-entry vehicle (ORV) will be taken to an orbit by an ascent vehicle derived from the existing GSLV and PSLV stages and stay in orbit for a stipulated period, re-enter and land in a runway autonomously with a landing gear.
