The paper considers developments in the world fleet of the spacecraft launch vehicles. It presents the most notable projects and programs in development of the space transportation systems abroad. The main innovations implemented in order to increase efficiency; technical excellence and competitiveness of the created launch vehicles are noted. Primary emphasis is placed on the ultralight launch vehicle as the multifunctional demonstrators on a mobile platform. The problem of optimizing the development process and ensuring reliability of the launch vehicles is analyzed with the design multi-level organization. Generalized model of the launch vehicle development process is formed. The paper proposes a methodology making it possible to assess the impact of limitations in the project total cost to create small spacecraft, timing of its implementation, as well as rational reliability period and values of the small spacecraft on-board systems in relation to the universal demonstrator platform.
