About the ULA Vulcan Centaur Rocket Kit

Built to Impress

Engineered with simplicity in mind, the ULA Vulcan assembles quickly and is flight-ready in just three straightforward steps. The kit includes interchangeable components for converting between display and flight modes with ease. Compatible with Estes D12-3 and E12-4 engines, this model rocket can reach altitudes up to three-hundred feet, delivering an exciting launch experience with minimal setup.

Display & Launch Dual Purpose Design

The ULA Vulcan is not only built to fly, it's also designed to be an impressive display model. Featuring striking ULA graphics and detailed structural elements, it includes a custom desktop stand and mock display engines for static presentation. Whether on a shelf, in an office, or showcased at an event, the Vulcan holds visual impact even when grounded. Its thoughtful design makes it a centerpiece in any rocket collection.

Precision Recovery with Dual-Parachutes

This model incorporates a dual-parachute recovery system to ensure a safe and controlled descent. A twenty-four-inch parachute returns the rocket body smoothly, while a nine-inch chute handles the nose cone separately. This two-stage recovery adds realism to each launch and reduces landing stress, preserving the rocket for future flights. Compliant with NAR safety standards, it's a smart feature that enhances both performance and reliability.
