Paper attempts to provide insight into subject of launch vehicle performance improvement; in order to derive performance gains, consideration must be given to certain characteristic parameters which are dependent upon variety of factors, and upon each other; factors and engineering trade-off considerations which affect them are examined; considerations in selecting number of stages, velocities, and staging time are also discussed.
