The Use of Auxiliary Rockets in High‐Speed Aircraft: An Analysis of the Possibilities of Rockets as Thrust Augmenters

Abstract

ALTHOUGH a new epoch in high‐speed flight opened with the introduction of the jet propulsion engine, new problems were presented by the thrust characteristics and high fuel‐consumption of the gas turbine.
