One of the most important military applications in missile science is the careful X-ray examination (XRE) of solid rocket fuel samples. So that it becomes clear whether the missile fuel is made efficiently and achieves its goal or not, which is a regular combustion rate from the moment of launch to the end of its flight. The main dependency of this is to provide expenses for the real launch of missiles to ensure the work of the solid fuel that has been manufactured. In this paper, we review a visual diagnostic system with X-rays for solid fuel samples (SFS) before starting the field tests to detect manufacturing defects. An optimal design of the X-ray device was made in terms of transmission and the radiation collection system to focus it on the sample to be tested and to choose the most appropriate X-ray detector for this purpose. The metal casing of the X-ray tube (XRT), the collimator, and the mechanical equipment of the entire system were also designed and implemented, with the assembly of parts and components of the X-ray camera. The system was tested on two real samples. The first is made efficiently and does not have any manufacturing defects, while the other has air bubbles. The proposed system succeeded in giving accurate images for both samples. This made evaluating fuel performance possible without costly field experiments.

Jednym z najważniejszych zastosowań wojskowych w nauce o rakietach jest dokładne badanie rentgenowskie (XRE) próbek stałego paliwa rakietowego. Żeby było jasne, czy paliwo rakietowe jest produkowane wydajnie i osiąga swój cel, czyli równomierne spalanie od chwili wystrzelenia do końca lotu. Główną zależnością jest zapewnienie wydatków na rzeczywiste wystrzelenie rakiet, aby zapewnić pracę wyprodukowanego paliwa stałego. W tym artykule dokonujemy przeglądu wizualnego systemu diagnostyki za pomocą promieni rentgenowskich próbek paliwa stałego (SFS) przed rozpoczęciem testów terenowych w celu wykrycia wad produkcyjnych. Wykonano optymalną konstrukcję urządzenia rentgenowskiego pod względem transmisji oraz układu odbioru promieniowania, aby skupić je na badanej próbce i wybrać najwłaściwszy do tego celu detektor promieniowania rentgenowskiego. Zaprojektowano i wdrożono także metalową obudowę lampy rentgenowskiej (XRT), kolimator oraz wyposażenie mechaniczne całego układu, wraz z montażem części i podzespołów kamery rentgenowskiej. System został przetestowany na dwóch rzeczywistych próbkach. Pierwsza jest wykonana sprawnie i nie posiada wad produkcyjnych, natomiast druga posiada pęcherzyki powietrza. Zaproponowany system pozwolił uzyskać dokładne obrazy obu próbek. Umożliwiło to ocenę wydajności paliwa bez kosztownych eksperymentów w terenie.
