Advanced simulation and proven parametric design give Firehawk the ability to quickly tune engines to new requirements – case studies and sizing are completed in hours.Cost Reduction
The simplified construction of Firehawk’s hybrid rocket systems allows engines to be designed, developed, tested, and manufactured at 1/10th the cost of other suppliers.
Highly-Optimized Fuel
We use innovative 3D-printed fuel via patent-protected additive manufacturing for the modern warfighters of today and tomorrow.
Remarkable Safety
Our hybrid rocket systems have zero TNT equivalency – virtually eliminating the risk of accidental detonations.

Streamlined
Design
Our hybrid rocket engines only use 12 parts. This simplified architecture accelerates production times and significantly reduces overhead costs.
Advanced Combustion Ballistics
Our hybrid rocket engine is designed with a concentric-circle ribbed port wall pattern to repeatedly trigger the oxidizer and fuel gas flow – which increases fuel regression and combustion efficiency.
Modern
Customization
The Firehawk rocket engine is highly versatile to accommodate ballistics at all thrust classes and atmospheric pressure operations – with long-term storage capabilities.

Who We Serve

Defense Systems
New propulsion technology delivering cutting-edge capabilities that drive change in offensive and defensive mission profiles.

Commercial Space
Firehawk is raising the standard of space flight with next-gen hybrid rocket systems.
Firehawk's vision is to provide dual-use rocket systems that are versatile in their performance capabilities. Firehawk's processes are designed to afford high production cycles at affordable rates.
-
Near-Limitless Scalability
Firehawk uses patent-protected additive manufacturing technology to produce 3D-printed fuel grains customizable to any size and thrust profile for precise mission tailoring.
-
Revolutionary Throttling Capabilities
Firehawk's throttleable hybrid engines provide flexible support for new and existing mission profiles - including boost-glide-boost, deep throttling, shutdowns, and repeat restarts.
-
Reduced Development Lifecycle
The mechanical simplicity of the Firehawk hybrid rocket engine greatly reduces the time and cost of development and testing. As a result, our rocket systems can go from drawing board to early production in less than a year - whereas similarly sized bi-propellant engines traditionally require 5 to 7 years.
