ring for interface ring with the Ariane 4 launch rocket; a primary bearing cylinder; a
transition conic section for connection a small lunar spacecraft. Both the primary
bearing cylinder and the transition conic segment were composed of aluminum
skinned honeycomb sandwich shell or aluminum corrugated shell. There was a platform for installation of electronic equipment between the primary bearing cylinder
and the transition conic segment, which was also a honeycomb sandwich panel structure. The lower parts of the fuel tanks were fixed on the strut and the upper parts
are connected to the primary bearing cylinder. Eight thrusters were mounted on the
aluminum struts that held the fuel tank.
