The RD-0110 (Russian: Ракетный Двигатель-0110, romanizedRaketnyy Dvigatel-0110, lit.'Rocket Engine 0110', and its derivatives, the RO-8, RD-0108, RD-461) is a rocket engine burning liquid oxygen and kerosene in a gas generator combustion cycle. It has four fixed nozzles and the output of the gas generator is directed to four secondary vernier nozzles to provide attitude control for the stage. It has an extensive flight history with its initial versions having flown more than 64 years ago.[6][7][5]
