Ursa Major Technologies, Inc. SBIR Phase II Award, November 2019

Ursa Major Technologies, Inc. (“Ursa Major”) intends to submit for Air Force Hypersonic Pitch Day. Ursa Major is a manufacturer of low cost, high performance rocket engines for hypersonic and resilient launch capabilities. To advance the state-of-the-art in United States hypersonic technology, Ursa Major proposes a Phase II effort to identify a new low throttle point to its commercially-available ox-rich staged combustion rocket engine to better serve the identified needs of the hypersonic community. The technical approach is divided into four task sprints which includes (1) building a system power balance model; (2) anchoring the model in real test data from Ursa Major’s existing engine; (3) creating a list of components for redesign to achieve the expanded performance; (4) developing a program plan for completing the redesign.
