Stratolaunch@StratolaunchFive years ago today, on April 13, 2019, Stratolaunch made history when the world’s largest aircraft took to the sky for its first flight over Southern California. Today we honor the legacy and history of Roc and the innovation it has made possible. Let’s Roc!
Today Roc begins its flight envelope expansion series, the 16th flight for the world’s largest aircraft. This test series is an effort to advance the demonstrated capabilities and performance of the aircraft, and ultimately expand the Talon-A hypersonic testbed’s performance range. We’re also utilizing the series to train new team members on flight operations, and to keep our current operations team sharp as we prepare for TA-2’s flight later this year.
