Composable rocket motor that can meet several needs to be built in US
Two defense manufacturers in the United States are set to advance composable solid rocket motor technology. Raytheon, in collaboration with Northrop Grumman, will continue the development of a new solid rocket motor (SRM) design. This new capability will enable a composable motor capable of meeting multiple mission needs by adjusting thrust on demand.Both companies have been awarded a phase two contract from the Defense Advanced Research Project…
Raytheon and Northrop Grumman are developing a new type of solid-fuel rocket engine. The development will allow you to adjust the thrust level of the system depending on the needs of a specific mission.
RTX’s Raytheon selected by DARPA to advance composable solid rocket motor technology
From RTX Effort aims to deliver more flexible, scalable missile propulsion across weapon systems ARLINGTON, Va. (May 26, 2026) — Raytheon, an RTX (NYSE: RTX) business, in collaboration with Northrop Grumman, has been awarded a phase two contract from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Burn n’ Go program to continue the development of a new solid rocket motor (SRM) design. This new capability will decouple post-manufactured mot…
Raytheon selected by DARPA to advance composable solid rocket motor technology for future missiles
The technology is intended to move post-manufactured solid rocket motors away from traditional single-use designs. Raytheon said the approach would enable a composable motor that can meet multiple mission needs by adjusting thrust on demand. The award follows a seven-month phase one effort in which Raytheon and Northrop Grumman demonstrated the feasibility of the new propulsion approach. The companies said the work was completed on an accelerate…
