Enhanced Rocket Motors
Also called: Experimental Rockets or Better Rocket Motors
Unlocks: Tactical Missiles Short Range Missiles
Time: Five Months
Description: Our early rocket motors are becoming outdated and increasingly less efficient. It's time we began making them better and actual worth the effort. Developing new motors and the ability to handle better and bigger payloads, as well as travel further than the current rockets.

Heavy Rocket Motors
Unlocks: Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles
Time: [1d6 Roll]
[1] 4 Months [2-5] 6 Months [6] 8 Months
Description: The short-range missiles are good and all, but it's time we expand their range to be able to hit beyond our immediate sight. The larger the rocket, the larger the payload.
Liquid Rocket Fuel
Unlocks: Chemical Fuel
Time: [1d6 Roll]
[1-3] 2 Months [4-6] 4 Months
Description: The oil-based fuels have been fine, but it's becoming increasingly difficult to power the larger because they don't provide enough impulse. We need better liquid fuels for our rockets.
Solid Rocket Fuel THE PATH TO SPACE BEGINS WITH A SMALL STEP
Unlocks: Chemical Fuel Allows for Spacecraft Research
Time: [1d6 Roll] [1-3] 2 Months [4-6] 4 Months
Description: Liquid Fuel, while great for in the lower atmosphere, can potentially freeze if we're not careful at high altitudes. If we use solid fuel, maybe we can circumvent this issue.

Specialized Rocket Motors
Unlocks: Theatre Ballistic Missiles Time: [1d6 Roll]
[1-3] 4 Months [4-6] 6 Months Description: We have short range missiles, but there's the risk that they're too close to the front lines. Let's increase their range by changing the design of the nozzle and allowing for better efficiency.
Heavy Specialized Rocket Motors
Unlocks: Medium Range Ballistic Missiles
Time: [1d6 Roll]
[1-3] 6 Months [4-6] 8 Months Description: The ICBMs are bit too overpowered for our needs, so why not get the same lifting capacity but on a short range rocket? Saves us the resources.
High Altitude Rocket Testing
THE PATH TO SPACE
Time: [1d6 Roll] [1-2] 2 Months [3-4] 4 Months [5-6] 6 Months
Description: The ICBMs fly incredibly high. What if we do some further testing at that altitude?

High-Speed Low-Capacity Rocket Motors Unlocks: Intermediate Range Ballistic Missiles Time: [1d6 Roll]
[1] 2 Months [2-5] 4 Months [6] 6 Months
Description: We need these missiles to take get to a its destination faster. We'll sacrifice some distance and capacity to allow it to strike faster.
Solid Rocket Booster
THE PATH TO SPACE
Unlocks: Unlocks Sub-Orbital Testing
Time: 4 Months
Description: We have a strong fuel, now let's put it to some real use.

Slim-Body Rockets
Unlocks: Air-Launched Ballistic Missles
Time: [1d6 Roll]
[1-3] 5 Months [4-6] 10 Months
Description: The other rockets are too large, so let's slim them down. This way, we could even launch them from airplanes if we so desire.
Sub-Orbital Testing
THE PATH TO SPACE
Unlocks: Unlocks Orbital Trajectories
Time: [1d6 Roll] [1-3] 2 Months [4-6] 4 Months Description: [MUST HAVE SOLID ROCKET BOOSTERS] We need to send small probes to just beyond our atmosphere. We need to know what we're up against.
