American SSTO VTOVL orbital launch vehicle. Intermediate versions of the Phoenix concept were sketched out in the mid-1980's. These more conservative vehicles used individual altitude-compensating bell nozzles rather than the aeroplug baseline. Composite materials were to be used in the aeroshell and, possibly, in the propellant tankage.

Status: Study 1982-1988.

Family: orbital launch vehicle, SSTO. Country: USA. Agency: Pacific American Launch Systems.
