Description
Ursa Major Technologies, Inc. (“Ursa Major�) intends to submit for AIr Force Space Pitch Day. Ursa Major is a manufacturer of low cost, high performance rocket engines for hypersonic and resilient launch capabilities. To advance the state-of-the-art in United States hypersonic technology, Ursa Major proposes a Phase I effort to determine the feasibility of modifying its commercially-available 5,000 lbf ox-rich staged combustion rocket engine to better serve the identified needs of the hypersonic community. The technical approach is divided into four task sprints which includes (1) building a system power balance model; (2) anchoring the model in real test data from Ursa Major’s existing engine; (3) creating a list of components for redesign to achieve the expanded performance; (4) developing a program plan for completing the redesign.
