- Description
- The DRACO program seeks to build a nuclear thermal rocket (NTR) engine and test it on orbit in Fiscal Year 2026 (FY26). This solicitation is for Phase 2 and Phase 3 of the DRACO program, which is anticipated to last approximately three to four years. The objectives of Phase 2 are to complete preliminary and detailed design of a Demonstration System (DS) and to construct and experimentally validate the NTR flight engine to the extent possible. The DS will be built to host an NTR for its full-power, on-orbit flight test, in Phase 3.
