Abstract

Since 2005, Kyushu Institute of Technology has been conducting researches on a new unmanned sub-orbital system based on the research and development achievements of reusable sounding rocket called HIMES (Highly Maneuverable Experimental Space vehicle), the concept of which was first proposed by the Institute of Space and Astronautical Sciences of former Ministry of Education in the 1980s, but failed its commercialization. Flight experiments have been performed using small test vehicles of winged rocket in order to demonstrate guidance and control system performance and terminal recovery technologies. A larger winged rocket test vehicle that aims at higher altitude flight demonstration and a sub-orbital prototype vehicle are under design by industry-government-academia collaboration since 2010. This paper introduces the future research and development plan.
