Orbex Prime Launch Vehicle Hardware

Here's a peek at our Prime launch vehicle hardware — a real testament to the skill of our team as we near the first test launch next year.

We are preparing every element of the vehicle, with much of the hardware ready now, and the rest in production, or test.

We purposefully included innovation and novelty in the design of Prime, this brought many challenges for us to overcome, and we are now realising the design in physical form.

But Prime isn’t just another rocket, with a wide range of advanced materials and techniques to create each vehicle, including the use of additive manufacturing for the majority of the propulsion subsystem and carbon fibre composites for the main structures and tanks - it's redefining small-satellite launch.
