Abstract

The paper highlights the most recent achievements o f the team in the field of penetrators and hammering devices: the development of the CHOMIK sampling device for the Phobos-Grunt mission, and the evalua tion of KRET's ('mole' type penetrator) performance. The principle of operation of both devices is based on the MUPUS penetrator device for the Rosetta mission; however, the features of construction are significa ntly different.
