Abstract

AbstractRETALT (RETro propulsion Assisted Landing Technologies) is a project funded in the frame of the European Union Horizon 2020 program, that is studying critical key technologies for the vertical landing of launcher configurations with the aid of retro propulsion. In particular Aerodynamics, Aerothermodynamics, Flight Dynamics and Guidance Navigation and Control (GNC), Structures, Mechanisms, Thrust Vector Control and Thermal Protection Systems are investigated in detail in the project. This paper provides an overview of the technological achievements in these different technological areas, with emphasis on the interaction between them. Design changes made to the RETALT1 configuration are laid out in detail. The novel approach of using interstage segments as aerodynamic control surfaces proved to be challenging from the aerodynamics, flight dynamics, mechanical and structural points of view. For this reason, planar fins were introduced as aerodynamic control surfaces in the new base line configuration for RETALT1. The paper concludes with a summary of future steps to be made in the RETALT project to reach the targeted Technology Readiness Level (TRL) of the different key technologies.
