Overview

Minotaur V is a ve stage

evolutionary version of the

Minotaur IV Space Launch

Vehicle (SLV) to provide a cost-

effective capability to launch

U.S. Government-sponsored

small spacecraft into high

energy trajectories, including

Geosynchronous Transfer Orbits

(GTO) as well as translunar and

beyond.

The Minotaur V concept

leverages Orbital’s ight proven

heritage of the Minotaur family

of launch vehicles to create

a low-risk, readily-developed

system.

The Minotaur V avionics,

structures, and fairing are

common with the Minotaur IV

SLV, with relatively minor

changes to create the ve stage

conguration. Moreover, the

avionics and ight software

are highly common across all

Minotaur family vehicles.

The rst three stages of the

Minotaur V are former

Peacekeeper solid rocket

motors with over 50 ights of

each stage. The fourth and fth

stages are commercial STAR

™

motors. The stage four motor is a STAR

™

48BV conguration. The

fth stage can be either attitude controlled or spinning. For a spin-stabilized upper stage, a STAR

™

37FM is used while a STAR

™

37FMV, with gimballed, exseal nozzle, is used for 3-axis stabilized

control.

The Minotaur family of launch vehicles are provided via the Orbital/Suborbital Program (OSP)

managed by the U.S. Air Force Space and Missile Systems Center (SMC), Space Development and

Test Directorate (SMC/SD) Launch Systems Division (SMC/SDL) located at Kirtland Air Force Base,

New Mexico.

Minotaur V is a low risk direct evolution of

Minotaur IV.
