3D Printed Propellant.

A new class of propellant production

Firehawk has developed an end-to-end additive propellant manufacturing system that brings control and flexibility to propellant production. Our 3D printed propellant is safer, repeatable, and mission-tailored.

Legacy Supply Can't Keep Up

Traditional cast and curing of solid rocket motors locks production into fragile timelines and limited shelf life. Our process removes bottlenecks, eliminates waste, and enables dispersed, smaller-footprint facilities that can operate closer to the fight.

Operational Proof

Field Demonstrations

Public test campaigns and hot-fire programs demonstrate consistent burn behavior and repeatability across motor sizes.

Program Funding & Validation

Targeted DoD programs have funded and validated printed propellant development, including recent awards to accelerate extended-range formulations and flight-relevant testing.

Qualification Pathway & Infrastructure

An expanded U.S. test and production footprint supports high-cadence static firing and qualification activities to move printed propellant toward operational sustainment.

Digital. Repeatable. Mission-Tailored.

Firehawk’s digitally driven process brings consistency and flexibility to propellant production. Designs can be replicated and adapted as requirements change, supporting a more responsive and sustainable approach to modern propulsion programs.

An Energetic Advantage

Where legacy producers are constrained by long cure cycles and fixed tooling, Firehawk’s additive approach removes that structural limit. We deliver speed, design flexibility, and a pathway to distributed production. Backed by R&D wins and with a growing IP portfolio, our capability is positioned to provide primes and operators with the rapid, surge-capable propellant supply they currently lack.
