The TR-201 or TR201 is a hypergolic pressure-fed rocket engine used to propel the upper stage of the Delta rocket, referred to as Delta-P, from 1972 to 1988.
The rocket engine uses Aerozine 50 as fuel, and N
2O
4 as oxidizer. It was developed in the early 1970s by TRW as a derivative of the lunar module descent engine (LMDE). This engine used a pintle injector first invented by Gerard W. Elverum Jr. and developed by TRW in the late 1950s and received US Patent in 1972. This injector technology and design is also used on SpaceX Merlin engines.
