Launch Pad McQuack - "That's not the name of the song"


Recommended Posts

The most interesting aspect of this Heavy Launch Vehicle is its Lander legs and Lateral Couplers attached to the center line tank, which help to keep this craft\'s center-line motor from contacting the launch pad.

The legs are attached with standard radial de-couplers and can be jettisoned right after liftoff. Another Idea to knock around the forum.

The 2m fairing is hiding a two module space station with a powered return capsule for the journey home.

My Favorite Features are the liquid boosters, which are attached with horizontal stack de-couplers, the tanks and motors are jettisoned when they run dry, and the stack de-couplers act as extra RCS fuel stores until the center line tank runs empty.

A Heavy Launch Vehicle for your large payload needs!!
