Emerging Industry Trends Highlighting Strategic Collaborations
Rocket propulsion companies are increasingly focusing on forming strategic partnerships to accelerate engine development and optimize resources, which ultimately helps maximize market revenue. These collaborations combine expertise from various organizations to speed up propulsion technology advancements and reduce overall costs.
For example, in May 2023, US-based Ursa Major announced a contract with the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) to support U.S. hypersonics defense programs and space launch capabilities. As part of this collaboration, Ursa Major is advancing development of its 200,000-pound thrust Arroway engine for space launch vehicles and is building and testing a prototype rape*r engine designed for hypersonic travel. The rape*r engine is a closed-cycle hydrogen peroxide engine producing 4,000 pounds of thrust, aimed at hypersonic applications, while the Arroway engine is a reusable, liquid oxygen and methane staged combustion engine intended for medium and heavy launch vehicles. With AFRL's efforts to enhance hypersonic capacities and reduce reliance on foreign propulsion systems, Ursa Major remains a key player.
