The Aerojet Solid Propulsion Company modified, full-scale, heavyweight, controllable solid rocket motor (CSRM-4), was successfully test fired at simulated pressure altitude in Rocket Development test cell J-5 of the engine test facility, AEDC, on June 25, 1973. The primary test objective, propellant extinguishment, was demonstrated on five repetitive programmed firings; The five 5-sec duration firings were separated by 60-sec extinguished coast periods. Motor chamber pressure at propellant extinguishment was 36, 26, 32, 30, and 26 psia for the five firings. Postfire condition of the motor was satisfactory. (Author).
