The integrated High-Payoff Rocket Propulsion Technology or IHPRPT program seeks to double the launch capability of the United States by the year 2010. The program is organized into three phases, with a technology demonstrator at the end of each phase. The IHPRPT Phase I Solid Boost Demonstrator Program is presented. Materials and processing technologies developed under the IHPRPT program and on other contracted technology and privately funded programs were combined into one full-scale booster demonstrator culminating six years of new technology work. New materials and processes were used in all components of the demonstration motor to achieve the cost and performance goals identified for the Phase I Boost & Orbit Transfer Propulsion mission area in the IHPRPT program. New materials utilized in the motor included low cost high performance carbon fibers in the composite case energetic ingredients in the propellant. net molded structural parts in the nozzle. and an all-new electromechanical Thrust Vector Actuation (TVA) system. The demonstrator was successfully static tested on 16 November 2000 The static test has been heralded as a success by government and industry observers alike.
