Description
The intent of the Phase I was to develop a LPS for large composite missile structures, and demonstrate functionality through manufacturing and testing. During the Phase I program, San Diego Composites (SDC) designed, manufactured, and successfully tested subcomponents with different integrated thermal protection system (TPS) - lightning protection system (LPS) configurations. SDC focused on proving the lightning mitigation capability of different material systems, as well as the ability to integrate the TPS/LPS materials. The Phase II program will focus on developing an integrated TPS/LPS for planned MDA directed upgrades to large missile structures SDC plans to focus on manufacturability, light-weighting and improving the overall system.
