Abstract

The short length HIPPO motor is a single cartridge version of the Super HIPPO high pressure ballistic test motor. The motor operates at pressures to 2,500 psi with propellant charge weights to 24,500 lb and is used to test rocket motor nozzles and components. This report summarizes the contract to design, fabricate, and install at AFRPL, including the first motor firing with a test nozzle for the Interim Upper Stage motor. (Author)
