'''Xerus''' (pronunciation: zEr'us), was a [[suborbital spaceplane]] concept proposed by [[XCOR Aerospace]]. It would be capable of transporting one pilot and one passenger as well as some [[Suborbital_spaceflight#Scientific_experiments|science experiments]] and it would even be capable of carrying an [[upper stage]] which would launch near [[apogee]] and therefore would potentially be able to carry [[satellite]]s into [[Low Earth Orbit|low-Earth orbit]].<ref name=sdc20030519>

On March 26, 2008, XCOR announced a new design that would supersede Xerus called [[Lynx rocketplane|Lynx]].<ref>{{cite web | url = http://www.xcor.com/press-releases/2008/08-03-26_Lynx_suborbital_vehicle.html | title = XCOR Aerospace announces new suborbital vehicle "Lynx" to fly within two years | publisher = XCOR Aerospace}}</ref>
