Advanced Solid Fuel Ramjet Demonstrator Coalition Warfare Program

Abstract

Project Motivation: Long Range Propulsion - Density specific impulse is an indicator of range potential for propulsion systems; Thrust per fuel mass flow rate; SFRJ have greatest range potential. Solid metalized fuels have higher energy density than liquids (JP 10); SFRJ are mechanically simple and can readily be scaled over tactical sizes (Recent 3.0 flight demonstrated at NAWCWD).
