Andúril-2, the team’s latest design, is their fastest and highest-flying rocket yetOn Aug. 19, 2025, the UVic Rocketry Team took on Launch Canada — the country’s largest student rocketry challenge — in Timmins, Ontario. However, Andúril-1 was not the team’s first attempt at a supersonic rocket. At the 2019 Spaceport America Cup, UVic Rocketry again attempted a supersonic rocket with the Hyak-2. Most of the components of Andúril-2 were machined by the UVic Rocketry team themselves, at the UVic machine shop. Prior to launch, the team had high hopes for Andúril-2 — expecting an apogee of 31 000 ft and supersonic speeds.
