Three 71-cm-diameter boron/epoxy composite rocket motor chambers were filament wound. The first chamber was hydrostatically tested; the second failed in proof test as a result of fabrication deficiencies. The third chamber obtained a successful proof test, but deformed later in processing because of hydrolysis. In spite of the deformation, this chamber was test fired and then burst tested.
