PHASE I OF THE PROGRAM CONSISTS OF A PROOF-PRINCIPLE DEMONSTRATION OF THE CONCEPT THROUGH EXTENSIVE LABORATORY TEST LEADING TO AN IGNITER TUBE DESIGN WITH UNIFORM FLAMESPREDING CHARCTERISTICS. MUCH OF THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT EFFORTS ARE BASED ON KNOWLEDGE AND EXPERTISE WITH LASER IGNITION TECHNOLOGY AND CONCEPTS DEVELOPED IN PREVIOUS PROJECTS FUNDED BY BOTH THE ARMY AND NAVY.
