ABSTRACT:
A three stage rocket vehicle (11) having a large forward propellant tank (12) and a small aft propellant tank (13) axially aligned. Secured to the rear end of the aft propellant tank (13) is an engine mount structure (14) carrying rocket engines (15). Offset and secured to the propellant tanks (12,13) is a payload structure (18). The propellants from the large forward tank (12) are fed into the aft propellant tank (13) and the rocket engines (15) are fed propellants from the aft propellant tank (13). This arrangement enables the vehicle to parallel stage its use of engines and components.
