The RVT is a rocket-powered reusable test vehicle developed by JAXA, the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency. While not itself designed for space flight, it is being used as a low-cost testbed for technologies that could be used on future Single Stage to Orbit spacecraft. It is similar in concept to the cancelled Delta Clipper flown by the USA.
