这个亚轨道飞行器一次可搭载13名海军陆战队士兵以及两名驾驶员。在飞行过程中,它先是被悬挂在一架大型亚轨道飞机的腹部,在被带到数公里的高度后便与母机分离。然后通过超音速冲压喷气发动机将飞行器提高至30公里的空域,再发动火箭发动机,以抛物线的轨迹将飞行器提升至80公里以上的太空。当到达距离地面约110公里高度后,飞行器将展开双翼并开始进入着陆阶段。着陆时,复合罩会吸收和隔绝飞行器进入大气时产生的热量。
The sub-orbital aircraft can carry 13 Marine Corps soldiers and two pilots at a time. During the flight, it was first suspended in the belly of a large sub-orbital aircraft and was taken away from the parent aircraft after it was brought to a height of several kilometers. Then use the supersonic ramjet engine to raise the aircraft up to 30 kilometers of airspace, then launch the rocket engine and use a parabolic trajectory to lift the aircraft into space above 80 kilometers. After reaching a height of about 110 kilometers from the ground, the aircraft will expand its wings and begin to enter the landing phase. Upon landing, the composite covers absorb and isolate the heat generated by the aircraft as it enters the atmosphere.
