It is about the Space Shuttle solid rocket which is called the Solid rocket booster, but contains a lot of info about other sorts of solid rockets. --JamesHoadley 01:22, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
"In addition, reliability of these kinds of solid rockets is about 1%, with the failure modes generally being catastrophic."
I'm sure reliability is about 99%? MKultra 18:09, 23 July 2007 (UTC)
Should this article be merged with Booster (rocketry)?Jellyfish dave (talk) 17:56, 7 August 2008 (UTC)
The article as it stands says nothing about how these things actually work. Like - structure and individual basic components, where the combustion occurs, types of fuel, etc. etc. Which is what I came here for. Rcbutcher (talk) 08:54, 11 October 2013 (UTC)
Could add : rockets that can use high numbers of SRBs - eg Atlas V 551, Ariane 6 A64, Vulcan centaur ..., Notable SRBs, eg highest thrust, or highest impulse, longest, widest, most massive ? - Rod57 (talk) 18:07, 25 November 2022 (UTC)
