X-Bow Systems Inc, the nation’s leading non-traditional producer of advanced solid rocket motors and defense technologies, and Texas State University have announced a cooperative research agreement aimed at testing and validating solid rocket motor technology for expanded manufacture in nearby Luling.
Under this agreement, TXST will help X-Bow construct a state-of-theart SRM test facility at the Freeman Center research facility in San Marcos. These test and validation capabilities will complement those X-Bow has established on its facility in Luling, including testing of larger SRMs X-Bow is currently developing for the U.S. Navy’s Conventional Prompt Strike and U.S. Army’s Long Range Hypersonic Weapon systems.
“We’re excited to leverage Texas State’s significant expertise in fields such as materials science, automation and advanced manufacturing,” said Max Vozoff, CTO of X-Bow Systems. “This agreement enables us to push the boundaries of solid rocket motor technology and contribute to the development of advanced propulsion systems for national defense, space exploration and scientific endeavors.”
