Some more views of Sparrow V1's 2nd testing campaign! We were able to complete 3 more full duration hotfires, with the longest being 5 seconds long. Our test stand trailer and engine have now been proven across a wide range of operating conditions. It's as shrimple as that 🦐
We’re thrilled to share the successful hot fire of our rocket engine, Sparrow! After over two years of development, Sparrow achieved its target thrust and pressure within 5%, and is the first liquid bi-propellant rocket engine in UF history!
@lrocket we did it!
IT'S TIME.
Tomorrow, April 10th, we will be static firing the "Sparrow" rocket engine, our largest engine to date.
A live stream of the test will begin around 11:30AM, with the first static fire planned for 1PM (or earlier)!
