Ammonium perchlorate composite propellant is used in both manned and unmanned rocket vehicles. APCP is cast into shape, rather than powder pressing as with black-powder. It is regularly implemented in booster applications such as in the space shuttle solid rocket boosters.

Ammonium perchlorate composite propellant (APCP) is a modern solid rocket
propellant used in both manned and unmanned rocket vehicles. It differs from many traditional solid rocket propellants such as black powder or zinc- sulfur, not only in chemical composition and overall performance, but also by the nature of how it is processed. APCP is cast into shape, as opposed to powder pressing as with black-powder. This allows for manufacturing regularity and repeatability which are necessary requirements for use in the aerospace industry. .Ammonium perchlorate composite propellant is typically used in aerospace propulsion applications, where simplicity and reliability are desired and specific impulses (depending on the composition and operating pressure) of 180-260 seconds are adequate. Because of these performance attributes, APCP is regularly implemented in booster applications such as in the space shuttle solid rocket boosters, aircraft ejection seats, and specialty space exploration applications such as NASA's mars exploration rovers’ descent stage retrorockets. In addition, the high power rocketry community regularly uses APCP in the form of commercially available propellant "reloads", as well as single-use motors. Experienced experimental and amateur rocketeers also often work with APCP, processing the APCP themselves
