Abstract
Content

Interceptor boost propulsion has traditionally been dominated by solid rocket systems due to their responsiveness and high mass fraction capabilities. However, increased costs of handling these flammable motors, the need to evolve more and more insensitive munitions, the static thrust profile created at propellant casting, and the inherent performance limitations of solid propellants have motivated the interest in exploring alternate technologies.
