American Rocket Company is engaged in design and development of an expendable launch vehicle to be used for placing moderate size payloads in low Earth orbit. The primary drivers in the design are reliability and low cost. High production rates of relatively few components, maximum use of existing designs and avoiding the normal drive for maximum performance are among the concepts used in attempting this task.
