I am still unpacking from a recent move and need to track down all my source material (including notes), but off hand I don't know if there is anything yet online. I will follow-up on this and will post references supporting my statement from Evteev, Polychenko, and of course, from the Chelomei cosmonauts themselves onto this forum as soon as I can locate them.


While Chelomei  is responsible for designing the basis of all flown Soviet/Russian manned stations and station modules, (Mir was more Almaz than it was Salyut) he is (IMHO) the least known of all spacecraft designers. The title of Evteev's second Chelomei book says it best: Chelomei was a designer "Ahead of his Time".


Best Regards,
