The Titan IIIC was an expendable launch system used by the United States Air Force from 1965 until 1982. It was the first Titan booster to feature large solid rocket motors and was planned to be used as a launcher for the Dyna-Soar , though the spaceplane was cancelled before it could fly.
Titan 3C launch 22 Dec 1965. OV2-3, along with LES-3, LES-4, and OSCAR 4, was launched on the third Titan IIIC test flight [6] on 22 December 1965 at 14:00:01 UT from Cape Canaveral LC41 [1] just one second behind schedule. From an initial parking orbit of 194 kilometres (121 mi), the Titan's Transtage boosted into a transfer orbit pending a ...

OV2-3 failed to separate from the Transtage. 22 December 14:10 Titan II: B-73 VAFB LC-395-C: Suborbital: Success "Sea Rover" [3]
Most of the Titan rockets were the Titan II ICBM and their civilian derivatives for NASA.The Titan II used the LR-87-5 engine, a modified version of the LR-87, that used a hypergolic propellant combination of nitrogen tetroxide (NTO) for its oxidizer and Aerozine 50 (a 50/50 mix of hydrazine and unsymmetrical dimethylhydrazine (UDMH) instead of the liquid oxygen and RP-1 propellant of the Titan I.

The Titan IIIE or Titan 3E, also known as the Titan III-Centaur, was an American expendable launch system. Launched seven times between 1974 and 1977, [ 4 ] it enabled several high-profile NASA missions, including the Voyager and Viking planetary probes and the joint West Germany-U.S. Helios spacecraft .
OV4-1T and OV4-1R were scheduled for launch on the MOL Heat Shield Qualification flight, with a Titan IIIC rocket. The dummy MOL (a Titan first-stage oxidizer tank) was equipped with a variety of experiments and dubbed OV4-3. [1]: 423–424 OV1-6 was also mounted on the Titan III. The rocket took off from Cape Canaveral Launch Complex 40 on 3 ...
