Abstract:

The Black Knight programme was an importance milestone in evolving space launch vehicle technology for Britain. It demonstrated how members of different commercial concerns can work together as a team for the benefit of the project. The total cost of the project has not been declared but it is believed to be significantly lower than the equivalent costs being quoted currently for some launch vehicle developments.
