HASTE
Rocket
A suborbital version of the Electron, built not to reach orbit but to fly hypersonic test payloads on fast, shallow trajectories for the US military. A heavier kick stage lets it carry up to 700 kg — more than double what Electron lifts to orbit, since it never has to reach orbital speed. Rocket Lab flies it only from Wallops in Virginia, where it first launched in June 2023.
We track every HASTE launch.
