The patent application concerns a combined rocket/ramjet for propelling a missile including a missile payload module and an integral rocket/ramjet engine system strapped on the missile payload module. It incorporates a liquid or solid fuel rocket engine and a ramjet engine having a combustion chamber common with the rocket engine, an exhaust nozzle, and multiple aft-mounted air inlets movable between a retracted position during rocket boost flight and an extended, pop-out position to receive and direct ram air in a reverse flow direction into the combustion chamber during ramjet flight.
