| ISS crew transport.[17] Although the launch was successful, the pad "[suffered] major damage," with the mobile service platform collapsing into the flame duct below the pad. At the time, it was unclear if arrangements could be made in the interim to support Soyuz or Progress launches, as Site 31/6 is the only launch platform able to support Russian orbital crew launches, though it was suspected it may be possible to borrow duplicate hardware from other sites, such as Site 1/5.[18] On 3 March, 2026, Roscosmos had announced that repairs at Site 31/6 had been completed with the restoration of the service cabin.[19] | ||||||||
