Aerojet 260 inch diameter solid rocket booster was test fired in 1966. The 260 SL-1 was 80 feet long and generated average thrust of 3.05 million pounds for 125 seconds. Peak thrust was 3.57 million pounds at 605 psia. Total power was 375 million pounds-seconds. Image:260SL-1_fire.jpg Image:260SL-1.jpg Category:Rocket Engine
