Sparrow L1.2 is a medium-lift launch vehicle capable of 8.25 tonnes to LEO.

It uses an A.H.U.S class second stage derived from the one used on the cancelled Arcas K-H rocket. The first stage is a modified Sparrow HGG (Hydrolox Gas Generator) LRB.

Due to the design of the first stage, the upper stage has to start its burn at ~40km so will need to be manually controlled until the apoapsis reaches the target altitude, then an autoburn can be planned.

The numbers in the name are used to show the number of cores and the number of stages: 1.2 is 1 core, 2 stages.
