* Yhdysvaltain ilmavoimien [[Vandenberg Air Force Base]]ssä [[Titan (raketti)|Titan]]-raketit kokoonpantiin suoraan pystysuorassa asennossa. Ennen laukaisua rakennuksen seinät siirrettiin sivuun. Vastaavia rakenteita on ollut käytössä Cape Canaveral Air Force Stationissa, [[Guayanan avaruuskeskus|Guayanan avaruuskeskuksessa]] ja [[Kagoshima]]ssa. Kouroussa raketti siirretään integrointitornista raiteilla laukaisupaikalle.
