NASA's P-02 probe was launched at 1300:05 on 1960 Mar 11 by Thor Able IV from pad 17A at Cape Canaveral. The Thor cutoff came at T+2:40, followed by the Able stage burn which ended at T+4:20. The Altair third stage then fired for 40s to reach 11.125 km/s. Pioneer V was now in solar orbit, with a 312 day period. It transmitted until Jun 23. Pioneer V reached perihelion on Aug 10 and aphelion on 1961 Jan 31.
Mass was 43 kg. P-2 was built by STL under contract to AFBMD, which provided "technical assistance" to NASA. Control from AFBMD/Los Angeles.
In the launch press release, P-2 was considered the third 'paddlewheel' payload, following P-3 and S-2 (Explorer 6).

The first KH-4B flight, Mission 1101, was launched on 1967 Sep 15 by Thorad Agena D from Vandenberg. The new spacecraft carried improved cameras and tested out new types of film. The SRVs were recovered on Sep 21 and 28. The second half of the mission returned better data, as the perigee latitude moved over the prime target areas. Mission 1101 began a series of engineering experiments, with a filter change in mid-operation during orbit 143 and a `through exposure test' on rev 159 using a collimating slit to study the trade between spatial resolution and effective exposure.
