Novel, Agile, and Lethal (NALP) Propulsion System for Next Generation Air-to-Air Missile

As this is a three-month program with two months of technical work, only a Proof-of-Principle Novel, Agile, and Lethal Propulsion (NALP) system will be designed for fabrication and testing in Phase II. A customer discovery process will be performed to identify potential Air Force Sponsors for maturation beyond Phase II.  This technology has been demonstrated in two Phase II programs for axial or DACS applications, but this Phase I will apply it to a system with both axial and ACS capabilities. We have a working relationship with the University of Alabama in Huntsville that can test motors up to 2000 lbf and can test at the Army CCPC for higher thrusts. C3 Propulsion and its parent company, Streamline Automation LLC, has outstanding facilities and a track record for successfully completing SBIR and contract research and development.  The key personnel are highly experienced in propulsion research and development.
