Course Description

Participants learn to identify the key considerations in tactical missile system design and integration and the broad range of alternatives in meeting performance, cost and other measures of merit requirements such as robustness, lethality, accuracy, observables, survivability, reliability, and launch platform compatibility. Design, build, and fly a small air-powered rocket.

Who Should Attend
