Quote:I can imagine that they would be stalling on using such a device until the last possible moment because Ptichka hates the thing and think it looks absolutely ridiculous.
I'm sure she only thinks that because it looks absolutely ridiculous...

Actually, I suspect Ptichka doesn't have one of these. The size of the aerobrake compared to the size of the probe hints that, if it was scaled up to Shuttle-size, it would fill Ptichka's entire hold. And the VVS have better things to carry there. (Such as crew quarters.)
