Solid rocket motors—and the chemicals that fuel them—are a major limitation on America’s missile stockpiles, and one that cannot be solved by additional funding alone. Adversaries like China are ...
L3Harris Technologies and the Orange County Board of Supervisors have reached an agreement to expand L3Harris’ solid rocket motor production in Orange County, Virginia. The company will invest $1.27bn ...
For more than 60 years, nearly every large rocket used some combination of the same liquid and solid propellants. Refined kerosene was favored for its easy handling and non-toxicity, hydrazine for its ...
Chinese researchers have been building a body of work on how solid rocket motors behave when ignited deep underwater, where extreme hydrostatic pressure fundamentally changes the way exhaust gases ...
