ATA-1

Turkey is planning to develop a homemade rocket for launching small satellites in an earth orbit.
The Turkish space rocket with the code ATA-1 is to be launched probably in 2015. The development plan started by government research institutes and the company Roketsan.
The domestic space rocket will be launched from Sinop in order to carry Turkish communication satellite called Tusat-1.

In a Turkish Journal of Engineering in 2002, technical details were published

The launcher is capable to transport a payload of 10 kg in a 500-2600 km earth orbit. The two-stage rocket is 14.7 m in high. The ground thrust of the 4 engines of the first stage is 74.8 kN together. The second cryogenic stage is driven by an engine with 2.7 kN (vac). The mass of the ATA-1 is only 5.95 tons. The missile created a total vacuum impulse of 15.9 MN*sec.

It is not known whether the development of this launcher is being continued.
