The NK-9 was a rocket engine designed and built in 1959 by the Kuznetsov Design Bureau. The NK designation was derived from the initials of chief designer Nikolay Kuznetsov. It was intended for the R-9 Desna, but lost this bid to the RD-111. It was the world's first oxygen-kerosene engine in the 1 MN+ thrust class to use a closed-cycle design with staged…
