This work focuses on the development and the analysis of atmospheric landing guidance solutions for reusable rockets in the context of the CALLISTO project, a first-stage demonstrator jointly developed by DLR, JAXA, and CNES. The most recent developments of the scenario are discussed, with a special emphasis on the handling of a complex operational constraint arising from the physical limitations of the actuators in use. We propose a simple technique to avoid multi-phase modeling of the landing guidance problem due to the aforementioned limitations, and show some numerical results obtained for one of the reference test flights of CALLISTO.
