ICBM Propulsion Applications
Abstract
The Propulsion Applications Program (PAP) develops and assesses strategic propulsion system technology applications for both legacy and future ICBM propulsion 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. This program element may include necessary emergent or unanticipated civilian pay expenses required to manage, execute, and deliver ICBM Demonstration/Validation for emergent or unanticipated weapon system capability. The use of such program funds would be in addition to the civilian pay expenses budgeted in program elements 0605833F or 0605831F.
