FLIGHT International, 19 March 1964 With Bristol Aerojet Pressure Vessels Bristol Aerojet pressure vessels show a weight saving of at least 5 lb per 500 cubic inch and as much as 50% when compared to forged vessels. They also operate with great reliability at high stress levels. These two factors alone considerably increase the performance of missiles whose systems are operated by gaseous energy. Altitude, speed and range, as well as overall efficiency, are all improved when Bristol Aerojet pressure vessels are installed. Made of chrome molybdenum steel, heat treated to a minimum ultimate strength of 80 tons per sq in, Bristol Aerojet pressure vessels have been approved for operation under military conditions. They range from 10 to 2,000-cubic-inch capacity and are made in a large number of shapes to conform to special applications. Bristol Aerojet pressure vessels have been ordered by many of the leading guided weapon and auxiliary equipment manufacturers and have been used with conspicuous success in Blue Streak, proposed as the first stage of a satellite launcher, Black Knight re- search vehicle and a number of missiles.
