Video animation by Andrews Space showing its Peregrine concept for an operationally responsive space launcher. I love this one. It really looks like it would work!

The Peregrine Small Launch Vehicle is also known as the Peregrine Launch System (PLS).
 
The Peregrine is the smallest of a potential family of space vehicles, developed by Andrews as part of Operationally Responsive Spacelift (ORS). First attached picture is taken from the paper AIAA 2005-6683: Comparison of Vertical and Horizontal Takeoff Hybrid Launch Systems to Address Responsive Space Needs (available here).

Second attachment comes from Andrews' ORS webpage.
