描述

The Titan IIIC was an expendable launch system used by the United States Air Force from 1965 until 1982. It was the first Titan booster to feature large solid rocket motors and was planned to be used as a launcher for the Dyna-Soar, though the spaceplane was cancelled before it could fly. The majority of the launcher's payloads were DoD satellites, for military communications and early warning, though one flight (ATS-6) was performed by NASA. The Titan IIIC was launched exclusively from Cape Canaveral while its sibling, the Titan IIID, was launched only from Vandenberg AFB.

泰坦 IIIC（Titan IIIC）是美国空军于 1965 至 1982 年使用的一款一次性发射系统。它是首款配备大型固体火箭发动机的泰坦助推器，原计划用作 Dyna-Soar 的发射工具，但该航天飞机在能够飞行之前即被取消。该运载火箭的大部分载荷是国防部（DoD）卫星，用于军事通信与预警，不过有一次飞行（ATS-6）由 NASA 执行。泰坦 IIIC 仅从卡纳维拉尔角发射，而其姊妹型泰坦 IIID 仅从范登堡空军基地发射。
