Malemute II Rocket-Motor Flight Tests

摘要

The Malemute rocket motor was developed by the Thiokol Corporation, Wasatch Division. Because of problems with spin effects on the Malemute motor ballistics, a new motor, the Malemute II, was developed by Thiokol. It has been successfully tested in a spin environment where the original Malemute motor had failed. The results of this flight test program, including comparisions with the preflight calculations are presented. (ERA citation 07:044359)
