No. There's a reason why you can't transfer solid rocket fuel and a reason why there are no solid fuel tanks. Do some research into how solid rocket boosters work.

[Hyperic88]

It completely nonsense of refueling solid rocket, solid boosters have only one thing why they are used, or why they were invented at first place. Firstly they were used as the common source of thrust before invention of liquid fuel, and later they were used in military rocket engines cause they can be "prepared" and stay prepared for loooooong time and launched when needed. Otherwise the liquid fuel is better weight to thrust ratio

Edit: yeah, like Person012345 said, look for the solid fuel and how does it works:))

You could replace the entire SRB but it does require some planning in the initial design.

Place the SRB in your design with docking ports and lock it into place with Docking Strut or Quantum Strut. Once in orbit you can 'undock' the SRB and slide a fresh one into place.

ok why did that end up here lol sorry

The SRB fuel tanks could work.

But only in a certain way (ie. no fuel lines or cross-feed) so you could extend or shorten the length of your booster as you desired with a nozzle at the bottom and then fuel plugs on top.

Part of the game fun is overcoming challenges. The ability to put boosters together that fit your needs exactly in every situation would take the challenge out of launching.

i tried doing a docking replace once on a SSTO but the SRB's are over kill on docking ports the second you try to steer and theres no turning them things off lol

cant wait for the ability to stitch new struts wile in orbit with ya kerbals then this would work really well

Every upside has a downside. I never expected docking ports alone would be capable to handle an SRB. That's why I mentioned Docking Strut and Quantum Strut.

Ok. Thank you for the replies, so I understand Solid rocket refueling is a No no... But what about SRB construction similar to liquid rocket construction. To have parts like "Solid rocket engine" or "Solid fuel tank 1 m"

Eh, just stack SRB's?
