It aims to be launch-ready within 24 hours, enabling rapid satellite deployment for defense and emergency needs. The rocket uses liquid oxygen and kerosene as fuel, allowing pre-launch engine testing to reduce mission failure risks. BSV plans to build a launch site near Kodinar, Gujarat, potentially becoming India's first west-coast launch facility.
