Air Force To Review Failed Launches

.c The Associated Press


WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Air Force today said it will convene a special review
of the recent string of failed Titan IV rocket launches that have set back
its space satellite programs.

Acting Air Force Secretary F. Whitten Peters said the review will be done
jointly with the National Reconnaissance Office, which operates the
government's military and intelligence satellite programs, and will recommend
changes in practices and procedures to ``assure continued access to space for
the Defense Department.''

Last Friday, a Titan IV rocket left a military communications satellite in an
orbit thousands of miles too low. And on April 9, a missile-warning satellite
ended up in a useless orbit following its launch aboard a Titan IV, which is
built by Lockheed Martin Corp. A Titan IV also failed in August 1998.
