   Atlas was a liquid propellant rocket burning RP-1 kerosene fuel with liquid oxygen in three engines configured in an unusual "stage-and-a-half" or "parallel staging" design: two outboard booster engines were jettisoned along with supporting structures during ascent, while the center sustainer engine, propellant tanks and other structural ...

   How many engines did the Atlas missile use?

   • The Atlas missile that resulted could launch a 3,000-lb warhead to a target 5,500 nautical miles away with a 1,500-foot CEP. Atlas missiles used five Rocketdyne engines; two LR89 boosters, a single LR105 sustainer engine, and two LR101 vernier engines that provided roll control and fine targeting.

   What engine did Atlas a use?

   • Atlas A (SM-65A) was a full-scale prototype intended to test the balloon structure and booster; eight were built and launched. As such it had no sustainer engine, just the two XLR89-1 booster engines. The first four used Navaho-derivative engines that only generated 135,000 lbT.

   What are rocket propellants?

   • Let’s learn about Rocket propellants today. Rocket Engines produce thrust by expelling a reaction mass. All the substances that create this reaction mass directly (for example, water rockets) or indirectly by a chemical reaction (for example, Falcon 9) constitute Rocket Propellants.

   When designing the Atlas, he eliminated the rocket's exterior structure and depended instead on pressurized thin (0.020") welded stainless steel propellant tanks with very little additional structure to bear the huge loads associated with hypersonic flight ( video ).
