| Annotation: |
The SPARTAN project exploits both the throttling capability of the
propulsion system and the peculiar characteristics of hybrid engine
technology. The development includes the establishment of an advanced
coding capability, enabling the definition of the fuel and the
throttling behaviour of the hybrid engine. The Hybrid propulsion
technology has been selected, because to its peculiarities (safety,
minimum environmental impact (green propellants), low life cycle costs,
responsiveness, competitive performances and increased reliability).
