Launch Library 2 Booster
Starship V3.
This page is the reusable first-stage profile for Booster 18. It explains the booster's identity, configuration, flight count, landing record, turnaround history, and launch records tied to the same Launch Library 2 launcher ID.
Use this page for booster reuse context. Exact launch records own mission timing, launch status, payload details, and pad-specific source links.
Booster identity, status, configuration, image metadata, and reuse fields come from the Launch Library 2 launcher catalog. Mission rows are joined from local launcher-launch records into the public launch cache.
Last catalog fetch: Mar 01, 2026, 12:37 PM UTC. Recovery links are shown only when local SpaceX drone-ship assignment data is available.
Flight count and landing success describe this booster's recorded reuse history, not a guarantee of future assignment. Upcoming missions can move between boosters before launch.
Compare this profile with exact launch records for current schedule state, payload context, launch window, and provider/source updates.
First Block 3 Super Heavy booster with various enhancements including Raptor 3 engines, integrated interstage and 3 grid fins instead of 4 used. Originally planned for usage on the 12th Starship flight test, but was written off after severely damaged during gas system pressure testing on 21 November 2025.
Booster fields on this page come from locally stored Launch Library 2 catalog and launcher-launch join records.
