How to launch the Atlas A (11A)
- Throttle 100%, Press stage button
- Wait for 10 seconds
- Press the stage button again to launch
- Then steer it like normal
DISCLAIMER : This rocket will not orbit. Because in real life, this rocket will not orbit too, because its only a Prototype ICBM.
I try to make it realistic so the thrust, the details, the height, etc is right. That's why it's long to build it.
Stay tuned, because i will make ALL Atlas rocket's.
This is where it all started, this is the Atlas A. Atlas A is a rocket made by Convair. The first flight took on June 11th 1957 and the last flight took on June 3rd 1958. So yeah, this is an old rocket. This rocket flies 8 times, 4 sucesses, and 4 failures. This rocket has 2 XLR-89-1 engine's and 2 vernier engine's.
Here are the source's that help me to build the rocket :

What was the range? I just got 9,250km , I’d guess that it’s a bit long , by 1/3?
