The trajectory design of air-launched vehicle is limited by many factors such as load,carrier safety,attitude control capability,etc. In order to solve the trajectory optimization problem under complex and multi-constraint conditions,an optimize method considering the crossing distance,maximum load and maximum control capability constraints was proposed. The crossing distance model and load calculation model of the aircraft and launch vehicle were established. By transforming the above model into process constraints and introducing them into the trajectory optimization problem,the pseudo-spectral method was used to solve the trajectory optimization problem,so as to realize the rapid optimization of the ascent trajectory of the air-launched launch vehicle under multiple constraints. On this basis,the typical parameters affecting the rocket crossing distance and maximum load in the trajectory design were sorted out,and the constraints between the parameters were analyzed. The simulation results show that the method can realize the trajectory optimization of the ascent phase of the air-launched vehicle under multiple constraints,and provide a reference for the development of the air-launched vehicle. From the point of view of reducing the maximum flight load of the rocket and improving the overall performance,the air-launched vehicle should be launched at a high altitude. After the launch,the angle of attack should be adjusted to the maximum at the maximum angular rate to ensure that the rocket can quickly pass through the dense atmosphere. At the same time,the crossing distance should be shortened as far as possible to avoid the acceleration of the rocket at low altitude.
