[edit] This article seems to be confused
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)
- That is correct, this article is about SRBs in general, not just the Shuttle SRBs. SRB will also be used on the new Ares IV and Ares V, as well. Testing is in progress for newer versions.LanceBarber (talk) 15:20, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Huh?
"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)
