Here comes the hypersonic missile you did not expect: in the super secret tests in August, China showed progress that amazes (and worries) the US
Thanks to its technology, SABER can take the aircraft to Mach 5.4 (6.300 km per hour) for commercial flights. That's five times the speed of sound.
Hypersonic weapons have the potential to revolutionize 21st century weapons exactly as the jet engine did for the 20th
Stratolaunch successfully performed the first rocket flight of its Talon-A1 hypersonic prototype: speeds close to Mach 5
The US Air Force invests $235 million in JetZero for a prototype mixed-wing aircraft, promising efficiency and fuel savings.
They promise to cut flight times from 7 hours to an hour and a half: Hypersonic planes can change our perception of the world, but will they be affordable?
A new NASA vehicle aims to achieve the goal of hypersonic travel. A very fast jet that defies the laws of physics.
The Chinese announcement is explosive: the latest quantum computer developed is, the developers declare, "a million times faster than its US competitor".
The drone flew at Mach 0.9 during the test, but in the future the RDRE rotary detonation engine will push it beyond the speed of sound.
Hermeus aims to build a passenger plane that flies at Mach 5. A bold undertaking backed by the Pentagon and investors interested in hypersonic air travel.
Testing of the Dart AE, the flagship of hydrogen aircraft, begins in Australia: a true hypersonic "arrow".
Boom works on faster air transport modes. XB-1 is the general rehearsal of commercial supersonic aircraft that will sail the skies.
The technology is already there, tests are increasing and so is safety: we are close to unmanned airliners, but the pilots will not necessarily stay at home. Here because.
It continually loses money, it has already cost a fortune, it risks heavy cuts. Alitalia's future is a bit like ours: it must be changed now, once and for all.
