Several programs are currently underway at Thiokol Propulsion which strive to meet or exceed the goals of the Integrated High Performance Rocket Propulsion Technology (IHPRPT) Program. The three major program efforts are: the completed Advanced Oxidizers and Fuels Program, in which was synthesized and evaluated a series of new ingredients for solid rocket propellants; the current Hybrid Fuel Program, which will produce fuels that complement the Tactical Hybrid Rocket Engine Applied Technology (THREAT) Program design and proposed advanced oxidizer; and the current Phase III Ingredient Program, which strives to identify novel, high performance, solid propellant ingredients for boost and orbit transfer applications. All three programs have already undergone down- selection from myriad of possible compounds to a much more workable number of candidates for synthetic consideration.
