This project will upgrade state-of-the-art production and production support equipment for solid rocket motors, with the goals of reduced cost, reduced non-conformance and reduced lead time.
Attention will be paid to enhancing merchant supplier capabilities in order to effectively serve the broad DoD and non-DoD communities.
