Stratolaunch Completes Another Test Flight

Mojave-based Stratolaunch, which has developed the world's largest aircraft--now being targeted for use in aerospace testing--says it successfully completed its third "captive carry" flight with its Talon-A test vehicle. According to the company, the flight--the tenth for the company's "Roc"--is the beginning of routine flight operations in Vandenberg Space Force Base's Western Range, off the coast of California's central coast. The company says it is now aiming at its first, hypersonic flight in 2023.
