Vostok 1 to 6

Author(s): ElChristou

Release date:

The Vostok program was a Soviet human spaceflight project to put the first Soviet citizens into low Earth orbit and return them safely, directly competing with NASA's Project Mercury. It flew five unmanned test flights in 1960 under the codename Korabl-Sputnik, before culminating in the flight of Yuri Gagarin, the first human in space, in 1961-Apr-12. Five other Vostok missions were launched until 1963, when it was succeeded by the Voskhod and later Soyuz programmes

(NOTE: The model is a little heavy and therefore may cause some minor crashes)
