After the final release of the XR2 Ravenstar by Altea Aerospace, development of other spaceplanes under the famed XR family name came to a halt, leaving the XR1 Deltaglider, XR2 Ravenstar, and XR5 Vanguard. The gap left in development began to be filled as Loru began to develop the basic layout of the XR3 Phoenix, with the permission of Doug Beachy. As of March 30, 2013, the development was coming along at a rapid pace, and many of the finer details such as windows, RCS ports, radiators, and other "eye candy" parts were incorporated fully. | After the final release of the XR2 Ravenstar by Altea Aerospace, development of other spaceplanes under the famed XR family name came to a halt, leaving the XR1 Deltaglider, XR2 Ravenstar, and XR5 Vanguard.
