HTV-X2
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
HTV-X2 is the second flight of HTV-X, an uncrewed expendable cargo spacecraft to resupply International Space Station. It is planned to be launched in JFY2026.[1]
Payload
As of 2021[update], HTV-X2 was planned to carry JAXA Docking System (JDS) in the unpressurised cargo section, which is compatible with International Docking System Standard (IDSS). It is planned to demonstrate automated docking to the Pressurized Mating Adapter (PMA) at Harmony zenith port after release from berthing at the Harmony nadir port.[2][3] However, the mission may be carried over to a later flight of HTV-X.[4]
