To improve cost situation, Convair, San Diego, Calif, studied technical and economic aspects of large boosters covering propulsion systems from conventional rockets to advanced air breathing systems; analysis shows that useful vehicle recovery strongly reduces cost; increasing velocity increment of recoverable stage becomes increasingly attractive as recoverability improves; design aspects of air breathing booster; comparison of air breathing booster to rocket booster.
