    This rocket was just so cool! The original heavy lift vehicle. 2.66 million lbs of lift off thrust, SRB's consisting of multiple segments, not only making the 120" SRB a reality, but also providing the technology that made the segmented Shuttle SRB's a reality as well. A main engine that was air started in flight after SRB burn out. 3 stages. (4 if you include the SRB's as stage 1) and an upper stage that could be restarted multiple times on orbit to precisely place multiple payloads into multiple orbits. All based on an already proven launch vehicle. Titan III was just amazing!

      "A main engine that was air started in flight after SRB burn out."
      Actually the first-stage engines started 10 seconds before SRB burnout (The engines took three seconds to reach full thrust) when the thrust from them started to taper off.
      " 3 stages. (4 if you include the SRB's as stage 1)"
      The SRBs were referred to as stage 0.

    This was made in 1967 but still retains the old newsreel characteristics of the strong declarative male voice over and the martial band music of the finale.

    The Titan III had its share of failures including its first launch. So to say its reliable is a matter of perspective. For example the Titan IIIC had 31 success's and 5 failures.

      The first Titan IIIC did reach orbit with its inert payload. The first Titan IIIA fell short of orbit, but not by much, and due to an easily-remedied Transtage problem (the Transtage shut down a few seconds early, but the vehicle achieved 95% of its test objectives), and:
      The vehicle's achievement is illustrated by the fact that five Titan IIIAs were built, but the next three performed so well (not just reaching orbit, but accurately delivering multiple-satellite payloads to their planned orbits, and making triple restarts [which hadn't been done before]) that the fifth Titan IIIA mission was cancelled. That Titan IIIA was sent back to Martin to be converted into a Titan IIIC core vehicle, as which it was later launched.

    It appears to me that NASA used the Titan III program as the blueprint for the Apollo program. The VIB became VAB, the transporter became self-propelled, and pads 39 A and B were dedicated to Apollo launches. Everything was upscaled, and the solid rocked boosters were discarded, but the idea of rapid assembly was maintained. The Titan IIIC was one of my favorite launch vehicles, but it didn't have the long career that I expected. Nixon killed the program, deciding that the U.S. would use only one launch vehicle for all missions, which is why the space shuttle ended up being a heavy lift launch vehicle.

    When I was a kid in the 1960s I thought this was the coolest rocket ever. After then, all the rockets I drew had 3 bodies. After Three came Titan IV followed by Falcon Heavy, though the latter uses 3 liquid fuel boosters and no solids ( but it LANDS!).

    • @Doggeslife
      @Doggeslife ปีที่แล้ว

      @neo Silly statement. I was there, remember? I've studied the rocket inside and out. Keep in mind that we did not know how to build big rockets back then. It was a learning experience, but we've learned so much more since then.
      It was quite difficult to maintain combustion stability in such a huge engine as the F1, and that's why we don't build them big like that anymore.
      But if I were jealous would I have two Saturn 5 launch videos on my YT page? Happy flying! th-cam.com/video/YJ3LiEC6wtY/w-d-xo.html

    While the Titan III was a very capable rocket it's a pity they didn't go with the Saturn I/IB instead.

      @Nature and Physics That is correct however both the Saturn IB and the Saturn V had applications beyond the programme. If NASA hadn't have had its' budget severely curtailed in the late 60s there's a LOT more that would've been done with them.
