Minotaur

Overview

The Minotaur Space Launch Vehicle (SLV) being produced for the U.S. Air Force Space and Missile Systems Center (SMC) under the Orbital/Suborbital Program (OSP) provides a low-cost, reliable solution for launch services of government-sponsored payloads.

The vehicle utilizes residual Minuteman II first and second stages (M55A1 and SR19) and the upper two stages (Orion 50XL and Orion 38) of Orbital's Pegasus space launch vehicle.
