I'd imagine that the Mercury Redstone would have a lot of data available on NASA. Given that the PGM-11 original Redstone is a military weapon, it may not have so much data. The early R7's definitely wouldn't have much data, unless the USSR declassified a lot of data - however, we do have a Vostok (a variant of the R7) right now, seemingly rather similar to the Soyuz-FG currently in use.
