Warm Reminder

This rocket was made in the DROO system, so you might need to make a few modifications if the galaxy you're using is the Solar System.

Also, this rocket is asymmetric in design, so I designed a program that can automatically perform maneuvers such as program turns in the early stages, and once it 25,000 meters, it can be manually controlled. However, I would like to remind you that this program is only an aid to takeoff; other separation still need to be manually controlled by you.

Introduction

Atlas V The Atlas V family of launch vehicles was introduced on August 21, 2002, initially a Lockheed Martin design, it became a United Alliance (ULA) product in 2006. Due to the outstanding performance of the Atlas V family of launch vehicles, it has become the preferred launch tool for the.S. Air Force's payload.

Naming rules

The Atlas V family of launch vehicles has its own nomenclature. The Atlas V is designated "Atlas V ABC", where ABC are three numbers with A representing the diameter of the fairing, B the number of strap-on boosters, and C the number of second stage (Centaur III) engines. Taking the V 511 I released this time as an example, the 5 represents the fairing diameter of 5 meters, the first 1 represents the binding of one booster and the last 1 represents the second stage equipped with one engine.

Configuration

The Atlas V launch vehicle has 11 configurations, they are: 401, 411, 421, 431 501, 511, 521, 531, 541, 551, N22

Advantages and disadvantages

The Atlas V's Russian-built RD-180 engine gives the rocket good performance and high cost-effectiveness, but it has also put in an awkward position since the US-Russia relationship deteriorated. However, the Atlas V's role will be replaced by the Vulcan and it will retire after the Launch Alliance's stock of RD-180 runs out, so the actual impact is not very significant.If you want to learn more about the Atlas V series of launch vehicles, please clickHere
