Launch vehicles flown under the Soviet space program before its 1991 dissolution, including the R-7-derived boosters that opened the space age and carried the first satellites and cosmonauts to orbit. Recorded separately from modern Russia per this atlas's own voice standard, which marks predecessor-institution facts with an explicit status note rather than a silent anachronism.
