The AS-1 launch vehicle is a cost-effective, two-stage medium liquid rocket featuring a stainless steel structure, liquid oxygen-methane propulsion, and catch-arm recovery and reuse. It is primarily tailored for low and medium Earth orbit payload launch markets.
The rocket has an overall length of about 70 m, a liftoff mass of around 570 t, a rocket body diameter of 4.2 meters, a single-use LEO (Low Earth Orbit) payload capacity of 15.7 tons, and a reusable LEO payload capacity of 10 tons.
The AS-1 launch vehicle is a cost-effective, two-stage medium liquid rocket featuring a stainless steel structure, liquid oxygen-methane propulsion, and catch-arm recovery and reuse. It is primarily tailored for low and medium Earth orbit payload launch markets.
The AS-1 uses a stainless steel structure combined with liquid oxygen-methane propellant, combined with a "chopstick" capture arm recovery scheme, anchoring the final path of commercial rockets.
Custom 30X stainless steel reduces material costs far below traditional aluminum alloys. With a targeted turnaround time scaled down to hours, the AS-1 enables airline-like, high-frequency operations.
