![]() Mission Description:
| ||
EELV is a space launch system development program to replace the current fleet
of medium- to heavy-lift expendable vehicles (Titan II, Delta II, Atlas II, and Titan IV)
with a more affordable family of vehicles. The new space launch vehicles must be able to meet
the Government's combined spacelift needs (DoD, intelligence, and other missions) through at
least 2020. The primary EELV configurations are the Medium-Lift Variant (MLV), required by
FY 2002 to support satellite block changes and transitions, and the Heavy-Lift Variant (HLV),
required by FY 2005 to assure continued access to space following Titan IV phaseout.
