This paper describes FOXSI-4, a sounding rocket payload developed by NASA to conduct high-resolution X-ray observations of solar flares. The instrument combines advanced focusing optics, pixelated silicon CMOS sensors, and cadmium telluride detectors to achieve unprecedented angular resolution and spectral sensitivity in soft and hard X-ray bands. The mission is designed to investigate fine spatial structures in solar flares and will be coordinated with Parker Solar Probe observations.
