Abstract

A rocket comprises at least one propulsion unit including a pivotable rocket motor, a spring-assisted one-time deployment mechanism, and a release mechanism. The pivotable rocket motor is pivotable between a stowed position and a deployed position. The spring-assisted one-time deployment mechanism moves the rocket motor from the stowed position to the deployed position when the deployment mechanism is released by the release mechanism. Outer geometry of the rocket is changed as the rocket motor is moved to the deployed position.
