Sergey Burkatovsky, the producer and chief developer of
World of Tanks, decided to invest part of the money earned on toy tanks into real rockets. True, the Taimyr rocket, although it is real, still has not quite an “adult” payload - from 9 to 135 kilograms. So far there are few players in this market, but Burkatovsky considers it promising. The amount of investment is also small. “Two options are being considered - the purchase of a 5% stake in the company for 5 million rubles and a 10% stake for 10 million rubles,” said Alexander Ilyin, general designer of
Lin Industrial .
As Burkatovsky himself told the agency, “Taimyr” will be able to put small payloads into orbit, for example, student satellites. “There are few players in this market,” he stressed. In the future, the project will not have problems with investments, he is sure, since Taimyr will be of interest to many businessmen. Burkatovsky explained his participation in the project by the fact that he is “a fan of the cosmos”. The future investor is not only the main developer and producer of the game, but also manages to write science fiction - which explains the interest in space.
