Kulch SRC is not the original creator of the TX, for it is based on a study by NASA in 1971, with some of the TX's features summarized in the book "''The Estimation of Characteristics of Carriers for Space Vehicles''"

The TX can carry other light vehicles to orbit; it is designed specifically for the [[Delta-glider]] and [[VTOL-X]], but with an appropriate flight profile, it can also be an effective first stage for the [[Deltaglider EX]] and [[XR-2 Ravenstar]] (when set to realistic parameters). It also can be used as a hypersonic cargo aircraft, a role in which it performs quite well. On this role,  Orbital Mode for the main engines isused to sustain hypersonic cruise at altitudes in excess of 30 km and speeds of around 2 km/s, even at maximum payload. Range will vary depending on payload and speed, but should be sufficient to fly from KSC to WIN with reserves. Make sure to cut your engines at least 500 km out from your target to allow time to decelerate safely.
