The Orlan space suit (Russian: Орлан, lit. 'sea eagle') is a series of semi-rigid one-piece space suit models designed and built by NPP Zvezda. They have been used for spacewalks (EVAs) in the Russian space program, the successor to the Soviet space program, and by space programs of other countries, including NASA.[1][2][3]
