AND . . . how was a Dyna-Soar (or MOL) crew supposed to get away from
a Titan IIIC? SRBs can fail very quickly and with TONS of nasty
debris (recall the Delta at the Cape a few years ago or the Titan III/
IV loss at Vandenburg in the mid 1980's.

The SRBs would have had thrust termination capability.


I guess higher order detonation of an SRB could be described as thrust
termination also.
