Comparison of performance capabilities and growth history of hybrids with other forms of chemical propulsion systems is presented showing advantages of hybrid engine concept; feasibility of most outstanding features which include high impulse, start/stop operation, modulated thrust, and insensitivity to temperature pressure, has been demonstrated; efficient throttling up to thrust levels of 10 to 1 is practical; knowledge of combustion process has been established to point where grain and engines can be designed to achieve efficient performance.
