This book was released on 1988 with total page 79 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The National Aero-Space Plane (NASP) Program is a $3.3 billion joint Department of Defense (DOD)/National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) technology development and demonstration program to provide a technological basis for future hypersonic flight vehicles by developing enabling technologies. The program plans to build and test the X-30 experimental flight vehicle to validate these technologies. The X-30 is being designed to take off horizontally from a conventional runway, reach hypersonic speeds of up to Mach 25 (25 times the speed of sound), attain low earth orbit, and return to land on a conventional runway. This report describes the NASP Program and provides a status of the X-30's technological development.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The presidentially directed NASP Program is a joint Department of Defense (DoD)National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) technology development and demonstration program. The program's goal is to provide the technological basis for future space launch and hypersonic flight vehicles by developing critical or enabling technologies, such as the scramjet engine. DOD and NASA intended to demonstrate these technologies by building and testing the X-30, a manned experimental flight vehicle that is to be capable of single-stage-to-orbit (ssto) flight. The concept is to develop a vehicle that can take off horizontally from a runway; reach hypersonic speeds of up to 25 times the speed of sound (Mach 25); and attain low earth orbit, without the use of external booster rockets or propellant tanks. The program currently consists of three phases. Phase I (1982 to 1985), which preceded the formal initiation of the program, evaluated the feasibility and technical concept for an aerospace plane. Phase II (1985 to 1994) is a technology development and maturation phase. The program is in the final segment of phase II, which is intended to develop the critical technologies and manufacturing processes, build and test specific structural articles, and test a subscale engine to demonstrate the propulsion system's concept. A decision was to be made in September 1993 based on cost and technical maturity on whether to proceed into phase III, which involves designing, building, and testing the X-30. However, funding constraints and technical concerns have caused DOD and NASA to reconsider the timing of this decision and to restructure the current contract and associated technical efforts.

Book excerpt: The National Aerospace Plane (NASP) program plans were to develop an experimental aircraft, the X-30, to explore the entire hypersonic velocity flight range. The program's objectives included support of future national security, civil applications, and a reduction in the costs of space launch. This Executive Summary provides an independent assessment of the NASP program. The report discusses a number of features that should be included in demonstration programs with the goal of proving that relevant technologies are sufficiently mature to support the development of vehicles capable of hypersonic missions over a range of flight goals, including, but not restricted to, the special X-30 case as originally proposed (single stage to orbit, very major reliance on multicycle air heating engines.) This Executive Summary includes a review of the early NASP program, from which the authors draw several conclusions concerning NASP, then presents a comparative assessment of NASP's role in the military, and a discussion of missions. This is followed by discussion of critical considerations in technology, prudent risk management, cost estimates, and programmatic issues.
