ICBM Propulsion Applications

Abstract

The Propulsion Applications Program (PAP) develops and assesses strategic propulsion system technology applications for both legacy and future (non-GBSD baseline) systems through projects exploring improvements and/or alternatives to current propulsion systems, conducting studies assessing application of new technologies to meet future common propulsion systems requirements, and assessing opportunities for applying common materials and technology between the ICBM, submarine-launched ballistic missile (SLBM) propulsion systems, and other rocket motor propulsion capabilities. Efforts are focused on current and future requirements and technologies, reduced life cycle costs, and increased nuclear surety, safety, certification and system vulnerability assessments.
