The innovative X-37B Boeing [NYSE: BA] today announced the successful de-orbit and combines the best of an aircraft and a spacecraft into an landing of the second X-37B Orbital Test Vehicle (OTV) for the affordable, responsive unmanned vehicle. The X-37B program is U.S. Air Force Rapid Capabilities Office. The X-37B landed at demonstrating a reliable, reusable unmanned space test platform Vandenberg Air Force Base at 5:48 a.m. Pacific time today, for the Air Force. Its objectives include space experimentation, concluding a 469-day experimental test mission. It was launched risk reduction, and concept-of-operations development for from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Fla., on March 5, 2011. reusable space vehicle technologies that could become key “We congratulate the Air Force Rapid Capabilities Office and the enablers for future space missions. Boeing's commitment to this 30th Space Wing at Vandenberg Air Force Base on this second space-based unmanned vehicle spans a decade and includes successful mission,” said Paul Rusnock, Boeing vice president of support to the Air Force Research Lab's X-40 program, NASA's Government Space Systems. “With OTV-1, we proved that X-37 program, and the Defense Advanced Research Projects unmanned space vehicles can be sent into orbit and safely Agency's X-37 Approach & Landing Test Vehicle program. A unit recovered. With OTV-2, we tested the vehicle design even of The Boeing Company, Boeing Defense, Space & Security is further by extending the 220-day mission duration of the first one of the world's largest defense, space and security vehicle, and testing additional capabilities. We look forward to the businesses specializing in innovative and capabilities-driven second launch of OTV-1 later this year and the opportunity to customer solutions, and the world's largest and most versatile demonstrate that the X-37B is an affordable space vehicle that manufacturer of military aircraft.

Photos of the vehicle are expected to be Station on March 5, 2011. The extended flight of OTV-2 also released soon, however, presumably indicating the X-37B landed demonstrated upgrades and adaptations to the 15-ft wing span in reasonable condition. The Air Force, meanwhile, remains spacecraft which was originally designed to stay aloft for 270 secretive about the mission saying only the Boeing-built X-37B days. conducted “on-orbit experiments.” In a short statement it says the vehicle provides “return capability” that allows the Air Force 3 OTV-2 launches on March 5, 2011 (Guy Norris) Prior to its launch, the Air Force said the mission would “build upon the OTV-1 on-orbit demonstration, validate and replicate initial testing and fine tune the technical parameters of the vehicle tests. OTV prior to launch (USAF) ” However, all other pertinent details of the testing, and what would be performed on-orbit, remain classified. Vehicle specialists were concerned that, with this extended mission, features such as the pressurized tires could be compromised. One of the tires of the first OTV-1 was seen to be flat on landing, and there were worries that out-gassing could have been taking place over the course of the extended second flight. No word yet from Boeing or the armed service on what the exact condition of the vehicle was like on landing, so watch this space. http://www.aviationweek.com/Blogs.aspx?plckBlogId=Blog:27ec4a53-dcc8-42d0-bd3a-01329aef79a7&plckPostId=Blog%3A27ec4a53-dcc8-42d0-bd3a-01329aef79a7Post%3A4f372217-d0b7-4eff-84a7-d2732b4d7393 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 6/16/2012 www.vandenberg.af.mil/news/ X-37B OTV 軌道上テスト・ビークルがバンデンバーグに着陸 X-37B Orbital Test Vehicle lands at Vandenberg 6/16/2012 - VANDENBERG AIR FORCE BASE, Calif. -- The execute this landing operation safely and successfully."
