Honda has developed its prototype rocket engine

More recently, Honda made a statement that the company is seeking to expand its product line and even plans to produce its own space rockets.

So did the Honda managers jointly with the Japanese authorities make a statement? that the first working prototype of a rocket engine of its own design has already been successfully prepared.

The automaker will be engaged in the production of missiles

As you know, the Honda Corporation was released in 1946 and initially specialized in the creation of motorcycles. The very first cars were released from the assembly line in 1963. At the moment, the company operates all over the world and produces, in addition to cars and motorcycles, jet planes and even robots.

The corporation employs about 200,000 highly qualified specialists, and engineers have at their disposal a variety of technologies related to navigation systems, control systems, etc.

And at the moment, the Honda management sees outer space as a rather booming market and wants work out ways to use their developments in this area, conducting active cooperation with the Japanese space agency (JAXA).

So, according to the available information, back in 2019, Honda engineers expressed interest in the development of missiles, and the management went to meet them and allocated a certain budget for the necessary work.

And at the moment, a full-fledged prototype of the power plant is already ready, intended for installation on space launch vehicles.

So far there is no data on the technical characteristics of the installation, as well as on what lifting capacity everything is calculated for. But there are versions that the final version of the installation, capable of putting 1,000 kilograms into near-earth orbit, will be demonstrated in 2025-2026.

Well, we will observe what will eventually turn out (and whether it will work at all) at Honda in such a "fashionable" direction today as space.
