This report presents the results of analysis of a near term DOD geosynchronous near equatorial payload deployment mission utilizing the Space Shuttle Vehicle, in conjunction with an Interim Upper Stage (IUS). This issue of the report concentrates on development of a nominal mission plan for a particular launch date and time. Such items as attitude timelines, approximate RCS/OMS propellant utilization histories, ground tracks, and ground station coverage timelines are included. Principal emphasis is placed on development of an IUS deployment timeline for near term missions. (Author)
