Two fixed fins lo ed opposite each othe n the first stage aft skirt. Fins provide stabilityduring first stage powered fl14 AFT ATTACH RI . Allows mating of first stage to muth ring assembly on EL.b. Second Stage. The 9 main : semblies of the second s .ge are ths aft skirt assembly aassembly. Figure 2-8 shor -, seconc- stage major features.Figure 2-8. Second Sta e Major FeaturesAFT ATTACH RING. Allows mating of first stage to second stage.FIRST STAGE SEPARATION SYSTEM. Allows separation of first stage from second stage after firststage burnout and before second stage ignition. Separation system contains linear shaped charge (LSC)separation ring, detonators, CHEFU, and high voltage cables.AFT SKIRT ASSEMBLY. Cylindrical aluminum assembly that contains aft lift points, NCS, aft splice ring,and cables.ROCKET MOT0al assembly that contains forward lift points,motor assembly also serves as outer surfaceernally mounted cover that routes cables from aft skirt assembly,otor assembly, to i. Allows electrical ignition of second stage rocket motor. IgnitionFU, and high voltage cables.FORWARD ATTACH RING. Allows mating of second stage to G&C/A,THRUST REVERSAL SYSTEM. Allows second stage reverse thrust to be developed after RV separationso that second starfere with RV flight. Thrust reversal system contains three thrust reversalports, LSC rings,etonating cord (SMDC), thrust reversal manifold, detonators, CHEFU,and high voltage cables.FORWARD LlFT POINT. Two lift points allow attachment of second stage hoisting beam so that secondstage can be lifted and moved.AFT LIFT POINT. Two lift points allow anachment of second stage hoisting beam so that second stagecan be lifted and moved.NCS. Controls movement of nozzle and provides nozzle position data to PAC.MOVABLE NOZZL . Directs thrust developed by rocket motor during second stage operation. Nozzleprovides pitch and yaw control during second stage powered flight.
