According to Roscosmos head Vladimir Popovkin, Russia is planning to implement its Venera-D programme in 2020–2025. “The relevant research and development is underway, with the launch scheduled for 2020–2025,” Popovkin said at the Third Moscow Solar System Symposium in early October. The project involves an orbiter, a sub-satellite, one or two balloon probes and a durable descent module conducting comprehensive remote and in-situ studies of Venus.
