With handful of start-ups on board from Hermeus to Venus Aerospace, hypersonic commercial flights could soon become a reality ...
Anne-Marie Murphy on Russell Island, one of the first areas to be hit by Alfred, described it “like jet engines roaring then booming”. Miki Jay, who was also on the island, described the winds ...
Pratt & Whitney is not the only engine manufacturer studying this technology. In 2023, General Electric Aerospace announced a successful demonstration of hypersonic dual-mode ramjet (DMRJ ...
The company revealed that scientists at its Global Research Center in upstate New York successfully tested a dual-mode ramjet engine subscale demonstrator that used rotating detonation combustion.
In the race for faster fighter jets, France developed the Leduc 022, an experimental supersonic aircraft powered by a cutting-edge ramjet engine. Designed to intercept Soviet bombers at incredible ...
This has the potential to reduce the overall weight of the engine as well as shortening the length of a combustion module in a dual-mode ramjet (DMRJ) or turbine-based combined cycle (TBCC).
Venus Aerospace has developed the Venus Detonation Ramjet 2000 lb Thrust Engine (VDR2), which integrates a Rotating Detonation Rocket Engine (RDRE) with a ramjet. This hybrid engine offers several ...
The HF-III surface-launched missile is similar to ramjet-powered weapons such as the Russian Kh-31 (YJ-91) anti-ship weapon. However, Janes assesses that the air-launched HF-III missile is smaller ...
The MBDA Meteor uses a small rocket engine in the initial phase to accelerate the missile to the speed necessary to activate ...
Can we keep getting faster and faster without hitting a big gap? Can the engines be light enough? Venus Aerospace has developed the Venus Detonation Ramjet 2000 lb Thrust Engine (VDR2), which ...
The world’s first oblique detonation engine (ODE) powered by standard aviation kerosene has been successfully tested by Chinese scientists, marking a potential game-changer in hypersonic ...
Ramjet missiles like the HF-3 require rocket boosters to achieve initial velocity in order for the onboard ramjet engines to kick in from a stay-still platform like ship or land-based launcher. The ...
