IS LYNX XCOR’S FIRST VEHICLE?
No. Lynx is XCOR’s third rocket powered vehicle. The EZ-Rocket made 26 flights and set a point-to-point distance record for rocket powered aircraft. The second aircraft has a more powerful and advanced rocket engine that uses XCOR’s proprietary technology. It’s the first private sector manned rocket powered aircraft to use a pump-fed fuel system. The Lynx, XCOR’s third vehicle, is another step on a technology path that will lead to construction of cost effective fully orbital spaceships.
