Vehicles in service

Ordered by flights flown. The success rate counts every flight that configuration has made, so an early failure stays in it for good. Counts for rockets outside the sixty most-flown were last read on 2026-11-05.

Common questions

How many rockets are listed here?
518 rocket configurations. 156 are marked in service and 35 are at least partly reusable. They're the configurations in The Space Devs' Launch Library 2 that are active, have flown, or have a flight filed. Between them they've flown 7,643 times.
Which rocket has flown the most times?
Soyuz U, with 714 flights. No other configuration on the list has flown more.
Which rocket in service lifts the most mass to low Earth orbit?
Of the rockets still flying or filed, Launch Library 2 lists Space Launch System Block 1B highest, at 105,000 kg to low Earth orbit. It's built by National Aeronautics and Space Administration.
What counts as a reusable rocket here?
A rocket is marked reusable when Launch Library 2 lists it that way, which means at least one stage, usually the booster, is built to be recovered and flown again. It doesn't mean the whole rocket comes back, and it doesn't tell you how many times any one stage has flown.
