Enterprise Class OVs
Six shuttles and several test articles have been constructed of the Enterprise Class. There are no plans to construct more, and the fleet is scheduled for retirement in 2010.
| Name | Hull Number | Status | Owner |
| Challenger | OV 099 | Destroyed with loss of life | NASA |
| Enterprise | OV 101 | Not Operational | NASA |
| Columbia | OV 102 | Destroyed with loss of life | NASA |
| Discovery | OV 103 | Operational | NASA |
| Atlantis | OV 104 | Operational | NASA |
| Endeavour | OV 105 | Operational | NASA |
Buran Class OVs
The Buran Class was the Soviet Union's answer to the United States' shuttle fleet, and was directly based on it with some improvements. Only one of them was completely constructed and flown, and the project was canceled after the Soviet Union was dissolved.
| Name | Hull Number | Status | Owner |
| Buran | 1.01 | Destroyed | Kazakhstan? |
| Ptichka | 1.02 | Not Operational | Kazakhstan |
| Baikal | 2.01 | Not Operational | |
| 2.02 | Not Operational | ||
| 2.03 | Scrapped |
Scaled Composites Tier 1
The Ansari X Prize was claimed by SpaceShipOne, the only privately designed and owned reusable spacecraft to enter space.
Work on the next part of Tier 1, SpaceShipTwo, is in development with Virgin Galactic.
This is a two craft solution. Stage 1 is a reusable craft separate from the spacecraft.
| Name | Designation | Status | Owner |
| SpaceShipOne | N328KF | Retired | Scaled Composites |
| White Knight | N318SL | Operational | Scaled Composites |
Kistler K-1 Series
The K-1 series is a planned private reusable class of spacecraft in development since the 1990s.
Masten Space Systems eXtreme Altitude Series
The XA 1.0 series is a planned reusable class of suborbital spacecraft. A prototype, XA 0.1, is in testing.
