CoClasses that Implement IAgLaunchVehicle

Example

Create a launch vehicle (on current scenario central body)
[C#]
// Create the Launch vehicle
IAgLaunchVehicle launchVehicle = root.CurrentScenario.Children.New(AgESTKObjectType.eLaunchVehicle,  "MyLaunchVehicle") as IAgLaunchVehicle;
Create a launch vehicle (on current scenario central body)
[Visual Basic .NET]
' Create the Launch vehicle
Dim launchVehicle As IAgLaunchVehicle = TryCast(root.CurrentScenario.Children.[New](AgESTKObjectType.eLaunchVehicle, "MyLaunchVehicle"), IAgLaunchVehicle)
