This chapter provides a useful guide to a global listing of various launcher vehicles that have been recently used in small satellite launches, are active in the global launch services market, or are now under immanent development for launch to support commercial space business internationally. Most of these launch vehicles have multiple launch configurations that include strap-on boosters. Further the designs of many launch vehicles have evolved in time and become more capable and with greater lift capability. Thus one must focus on not only the name of a launch system but its actual detailed name and complete model number. In short, the capabilities of launch vehicles change over time. It is best to consult with the latest web site information to obtain the latest information.
