摘要

The European Future Launcher Preparatory Program (FLPP) shall prepare Europe for a development decision for a reusable launch vehicle (RLV) in the time frame of 2010, such that an operational RLV may enter into service by 2020-2025 and be operational for 30-40 years. Three main RLV system concept families are considered for FLPP: semi-reusable concepts with a reusable first stage (RFS) for vertical take-off and horizontal landing and one or two expendable upper stages; fully reusable two-stage to orbit concepts for vertical take-off and horizontal landing plus an expendable upper stage for missions beyond LEO; suborbital concepts, like the Hopper, with a fully reusable suborbital lower stage for horizontal take-off and landing and an expendable upper stage for orbit insertion. Despite the distant development milestones and the uncertainty in the predicted markets, an as-early-as-possible down-selection to one of the proposed concepts is promoted to focus the development effort and be more efficient with the limited budgets. This paper gives an overview of the programmatic requirements and reference design guidelines for a European RLV development. It provides a status overview of each project led by EADS SPACE Transportation (EADS-ST) so that the consistency of the different approaches might be underlined, mainly through: high-level requirements comparison; missions and performance; design approach; enabling technologies required by defined concepts; prog-rammatics. Based on these dat; a down-selection approach is proposed to manage both the uncertainties of governmental and commercial missions as well as the system concept's key parameters. More specifically, FLPP's proposed orientations as well as requirement to drive and focus the technology development effort in Europe over the coming years are addressed.
