RS1

Company: ABL Space Systems

RS1 was designed for the fuss-free, high-cadence launches of the future.ABL Space Systems's small, inexpensive launch vehicle is called RS1.To protect the payload from aerodynamic buffeting and heating during ascent, it uses a straightforward metallic fairing.RS1 was created with deployability in mind. The rocket's stages are all designed to fit within typical shipping containers. This means that RS1 may be transported to a desired launch point with ease via air, land, or sea. The vehicle is powered by RP-1 or Jet-A, which can be found at airfields all over the world, and LOx. With fewer personnel, less time, and a smaller footprint, RS1 can be prepared for launch.
