About: SM-65E Atlas

An Entity of Type: rocket, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The SM-65E Atlas, or Atlas-E, was an operational variant of the Atlas missile. It first flew on October 11, 1960, and was deployed as an operational ICBM from September 1961 until April 1966. Following retirement as an ICBM, the Atlas-E, along with the Atlas-F, was refurbished for orbital launches as the Atlas E/F. The last Atlas E/F launch was conducted on March 24, 1995, using a rocket which had originally been built as an Atlas E. Atlas-E launches were conducted from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, at Launch Complexes 11 and 13, and Vandenberg Air Force Base at OSTF-1, LC-576 and SLC-3.

dbo:abstract
  • The SM-65E Atlas, or Atlas-E, was an operational variant of the Atlas missile. It first flew on October 11, 1960, and was deployed as an operational ICBM from September 1961 until April 1966. Following retirement as an ICBM, the Atlas-E, along with the Atlas-F, was refurbished for orbital launches as the Atlas E/F. The last Atlas E/F launch was conducted on March 24, 1995, using a rocket which had originally been built as an Atlas E. As fully operational ICBMs, the Atlas E and F, which differed only in guidance systems, had upgraded engines and inertial control instead of the Atlas D's radio ground guidance. The ignition system was also different from the one used on the D-series, which used a "wet" start, meaning that the propellants were injected into the combustion chamber prior to ignition, and a hypergolic igniter on the fully developed version. The Atlas E/F for comparison used pyrotechnic cartridges and a dry start (ignition coming before propellant injection) for an extremely rapid ignition that required no hold-down time on the pad to prevent combustion instability. The booster engines had separate gas generators unlike the Atlas D which had one gas generator for both engines. The launcher system used for the E and F series was also different from the D series, eliminating the hold-down arms in favor of a mechanism that would immediately release the missile as thrust built up. Atlas-E launches were conducted from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, at Launch Complexes 11 and 13, and Vandenberg Air Force Base at OSTF-1, LC-576 and SLC-3. (en)
  • O SM-65E Atlas, ou Atlas E, foi uma variante operacional do míssil Atlas. Ele voou pela primeira vez em 11 de outubro de 1960, e foi implantado como um ICBM operacional de setembro de 1961 até abril de 1966. Após a aposentadoria como um ICBM, o Atlas E, se junto com o Atlas F, e foi remodelado para lançamentos orbitais como o Atlas E/F. O último lançamento do Atlas E/F foi realizado em 24 de março de 1995, usando um foguete que tinha sido originalmente construído como um Atlas E. Como ICBMs plenamente operacionais, o Atlas E e F (que diferiam apenas em sistemas de orientação) tinha atualizado motores e controle de inércia em vez da orientação chão rádio do Atlas D. (pt)
