An effective Recovery system must interface with other subsystems, including:
- Avionics: The Avionics Subteam controls the command, timing, and sequence of parachute deployment
- Propulsion: The Recovery Subteam must protect the launch vehicle from aerodynamic heating during rapid ascent
- Payload: If necessary, the Recovery Subteam must provide an independent Payload Recovery system
- Structures: Both Recovery and Structures Subteams must ensure that vehicle hardware can withstand the expected upper-bounds of chute deployment loads
