NASA Marshall Space Flight Center Advanced Reusable Technologies/Rocket Based Combined Cycle (RBCC) program has enabled: (1) the creation of unique trajectory simulation facility; (2) development of basic operability and performance data; (3) results to date: (a) rocket thrusters performing as designed (P(sub c), MR, q, etc); (b) AAR performance data measured at M = 0 and 3; (c) rocket mode performance at simulated vacuum conditions; and (d) data reduction in progress; (4) completing testing; M = 0, 3 and trajectory M = 3 to 3.7; and (5) next logical steps: build flight type engine and flight demonstrate RBCC.
