The NGI pathfinder motors demonstrate case designs,
manufacturing processes as well as allows the teams to test and
conduct integration operations. The completed cases will be filled
with inert propellent and shipped to Redstone Arsenal, Alabama,
where they will be integrated into an interceptor, continuing
pathfinder activities and further proving out processes. Once
integration is complete, the interceptor will be used for
additional testing and process verification.
“Our experienced teams and cutting-edge solid rocket motor
manufacturing technologies, backed by flight-proven processes, have
enabled us to achieve several key milestones in rapid succession,”
said Lisa Brown, vice president, NGI, Northrop Grumman. “With NGI’s
mission to defend our homeland against incoming enemy threats,
saving time and reducing risk is vital.”
The successful production of NGI solid rocket motor cases is a
significant achievement that demonstrates our expertise and robust
designs and manufacturing capabilities.
