A rocket catapult assembly for an ejection seat may comprise a drive motor, a metering tube, a first cartridge, and a second cartridge. The metering tube may include an outer wall having a gas pervious section and a gas impervious section. The drive motor may be configured to translate the metering tube and align the gas pervious section or gas impervious section with a first cartridge and a second cartridge to produce a desired thrust of the rocket catapult assembly.
