Building hypersonic planes won't demand a significantly different design approach, study suggests
Hypersonic planes could fly from Sydney to Los Angeles in just an hour. What's standing in the way of such ultra-fast planes becoming reality is our understanding of how the turbulence they generate ...
Chinese scientists have tested a new technology that could put the People's Liberation Army's (PLA) hypersonic missile technology well ahead of the U.S. Army's current technology. Chinese scientists ...
Summary and Key Points: The X-51 Waverider, an experimental hypersonic aircraft, reached speeds up to Mach 5.1 (3,400 mph). Launched in 2005 by Boeing Phantom Works with DARPA and Air Force Research ...
Hypersonic flight could one day make long-haul travel as quick as a short movie. Researchers are testing how turbulence behaves at extreme speeds, a critical hurdle for designing these aircraft. Their ...
The X-51A WaveRider hypersonic vehicle, powered by Pratt & Whitney Rocketdyne’s scramjet engine, achieved aviation history today by making the longest-ever supersonic combustion ramjet-powered flight.
