The coplanar problem of determining the minimum-fuel impulsive interorbital transfer with aerodynamic maneuvers is investigated. The interorbital transfer is accomplished in the central gravitational field of the planet with atmosphere. The aerodynamic maneuver consists in passive impulsive decrease of velocity by means of breaking in the planet atmosphere. The size and shape of the boundary orbits are given, but their positions in the motion plane may be either fixed or arbitrary. It is shown that a significant fuel gain may be obtained by using aerodynamic maneuvers.
