The rocket motor charge is composed of a plurality of propellants of prescribed and graduated burning rates, advantageous contours and dimensions such that the burning of all of the propellants in a grain ends at the same time. This result is accomplished by designing the propellants as long cone structures with sharp edges and points and with mathematically determined inclinations and proportionate dimensions that collectively provide a materially improved volumetric burning efficiency, high mass ratio, low center of gravity travel and that eliminates previously encountered difficulties in burning high-burningrate propellants.
