Veículo Lançador de Satélites or Satellite Launch Vehicle is a Brazilian rocket under development.
Add-on description:
Brazilian Space Program for Orbiter, including the Alcantara Launch Center (CLA) , the VLS-1 satellite launcher (Veículo Lançador de Satélites), the VLM-1 microsatellite launcher (Veículo Lançador de Microssatélites) and a microsatellite.
Release notes: First version, so guidance is rough but should be good enough to achieve orbit. Notice that the last stage on both rockets is designed for a delayed burn (more than 200sec). So be patient and let the guidance run until all fuel is spent. Future updates might feature the VS40 rocket, the SARA reentry spacecraft and the projected VLS redesigns.
