Rising to tomorrow’s challenge

Snecma Propulsion Solide offers a full range of missile-related technologies:
- hot-gas vector control for the terminal stages of missiles and interceptors;
- steerable nozzles mounted on flex-bearings or swivel bearings;
- composite jet deflectors;
- ceramic composite combustion chambers and chamber linings for ramjets and scramjets;
- winding of the casing directly onto the propellant grain.

The transition to industrial production for the M51 new generation missile marks a major milestone for Snecma Propulsion Solide.

Long experience as missile motor prime, coupled with extensive R&D and production capabilities, and respect for confidentiality, make Snecma Propulsion Solide ideally suited to meet the demanding propulsion requirements for tomorrow’s missiles.
