The Lavochkin Research and Production Association has modernized all its Fregat-MT rocket boosters after a failure that occurred to Europe’s Galileo satellite, the company’s director general Viktor Khartov told TASS on Monday.

“All Fregat boosters we make have been modernized to avoid the factor that led to an emergency with the Galileo satellite. The factor that created a combination of circumstances that led to such a sad result has been removed,” Khartov said adding that the remarks and suggestions which had been made would now be taken into consideration in the production of all Fregat rocket boosters.
