A multi-phase investigation was conducted to quantify the thermal insult produced by the burning of unspent solid rocket propellant in a missile hit scenario. The objectives of this multi-phase investigation were to; identify the thermal conditions produced in the compartment during the missile fuel burning stage, identify the likelihood for ignition of Class A materials in the space and bound the transition time for the ensuring compartment fire. This report summarizes the results of the third and final phase of this investigation.
