Abstract
Considerations governing the selection of superalloys and refractory alloys for the fabrication of high-performance reentry vehicles are discussed. Oxidation resistant coatings were evaluated to determine their capacity to protect faying surfaces. The performance of the R-512A coating under simulated reentry conditions is reported.
