Perbedaan propellant combinations are use depending on mission requirems. Some comomn combinations include:
- Liquid Hydrogen and Liquid Oxygen (LH2 / LOX)
- RP-1 (kerosene) and Liquid Oxygen (RP-1 / LOX)
- Hydrazine and Nitrogen Tetroxide (N2O4)
- Solid propellants lipe e composite or double- bale fuels
