Titan improvement study - Hydrogen core stages

Abstract

The performance benefits and comparative cost-effectiveness of Titan/Centaur launcher improvement options involving a new LH2/LOX second stage and/or a new LH2/LOX first stage are presented. This incremental improvement approach involves higher confidence due to high components-commonality with well-tested systems. The proposed second stage's capabilities are such as to allow it to serve as an OTV. This improvement to Titan constitutes one of several justifications for a new 500-1000 kN thrust liquid-fuel engine.
