ABSTRACT:
A novel and unique rocket ignition system comprising a novel igniter having copper foil laminated plastic substrate having a electro-conductive pyrotechnic coating disposed on one end thereof and ignitable by means of a special power-supplied igniter clip having offset positive and negative terminals for engaging the igniter and transmitting an electrical current therethrough to initiate combustion of the pyrotechnic coating which in turn ignites a rocket propellant disposed in close proximity thereto. Special means are provided to selectively position and secure the rocket ignition system to a rocket motor.
