The configuration of the Transtage upper stage and its application to the Titan III launch vehicle are examined. The Transtage consists of a control and a propulsion module, and is about 10 feet in diameter and 14.75 feet in length. The elements of the control and propulsion modules and their functions are described. The Transtage/Titan III combination allows for the insertion of a payload into geostationary transfer orbit and eliminates the requirement for a perigee kick motor system. It is observed that the addition of the Transtage upper stage to the Titan III launch vehicle provides a geosynchronous transfer orbit capability of 9500 lbs, flexible mission tailoring, and reliability exceeding 96 percent. Diagrams of the Titan III and the Transtage and its components are provided.
