QuickReach edit
Most of the development has occurred on the QuickReach concept[1] which is being developed as part of the DARPA/Air Force FALCON Small Launch Vehicle (SLV) program. The design, uses a parashoot to separate the rocket from it's mothership and to correctly orientate the booster for it's burn into space.
Progress edit
Air Launch have completed drop tests validating the drop concept[citation needed] as well as tested their XXXX rocket engine[citation needed].
Other applications edit
The QuickReach concept has been proposed as the launcher for the CVX crewed orbital transporter by t/space[2]. The much larger QuickReach 2 is a scaled up version of QuickReach that was designed to carry people.
