Title : Rans S-12 RPV Takes off with Spacewedge #2
Caption :
A Rans S-12 remotely piloted ''mothership'' takes off from a lakebed runway carrying a Spacewedge research model during 1992 flight tests. The Spacewedge was lauched in flight from the Rans S-12 aircraft and then glided back to a landing under a steerable parafoil. Technology tested in the Spacewedge program was used in developing the X-38 research vehicle.
