dual-thrust sustainer rocket engine
A rocket engine that maintains the velocity of a rocket vehicle once it has achieved its programmed velocity by use of a booster or other engine.

In a dual-thrust solid fuel rocket motor, the propellant mass is composed of two different types or densities of fuel. In the case of a tandem dual-thrust motor, the fuel closest to the rocket nozzle burns fast and the fuel further into the motor's body burns slower. This has the effect of giving the rocket a lot of thrust initially, accelerating it up to high speed rapidly, and then once all the fast-burning propellant has burnt, the slow-burning propellant begins delivering a much lower level of thrust. The first phase of acceleration is called "boost" and the second phase "sustain". Not all dual-thrust motors are in a tandem arrangement but non-tandem motors function much the same; they just have a different physical layout of fuel, for example they might burn from the inside to the outside (core burning), rather than from the end in (end burning).

You are more than kind, Jacek. The motor-engine controversy lives on. Also, both dual-stage and dual-mode are in vogue.

Discussion
The magazine article argues that the difference is that engines contain their own fuel or are part of a highly integrated engine-fuel system, whereas a motor draws on externally supplied energy.
The confusion between rocket engine and rocket motor is less obvious. By analogy with other devices that consume fuel, it ought to be an engine, but perhaps by the time it came to be named motor had become so close a synonym that either felt right.
