Data on production, storage, handling and performance; liquid oxygen, because of advantages cited, is probably best oxidant for large guided missiles; its greater bulk compared with other oxidants is disadvantage in high performance fighters; for space flight, oxygen propellant combinations are best of poor choice of chemical propellants.
