The HOPE development plan as it appeared in the late 1990s. Important elements besides HOPE include OREX to demonstrate thermal protection and atmospheric re-entry systems, ALFLEX to test the HOPE-X low-speed aerodynamic and landing systems, and HYFLEX to demonstrate hypersonic flight. The end goal is a fully reusable aerospace plane / space transportation system.

Like Europe, the National Space Development Agency had big plans to develop a large carrier rocket and manned "H2 Orbiting Plane" (HOPE). These illustrations from 1986-87 show the final, manned follow-on version planned for the early 21st century. It would carry a crew of four astronauts.
