What has zero moving parts, yet can blast an aerial vehicle to velocities beyond Mach 5? The answer is the recently flight-tested Atmospheric Test of Launched Airbreathing System (ATLAS) powered by a ...

China has tested a powerful engine that can carry weapons at remarkable speeds through both air and water. The novel engine achieved 90% efficiency in laboratory tests, which were conducted in ...

There probably never was a better time for rocket engine fans to be alive. It's a time when those who have the means can go out and start building the rocket engine of their dreams, while the rest can ...

GE Aerospace has recently successfully demonstrated two different rotating detonation combustion (RDC) engines—a ...

Venus Aerospace has introduced its groundbreaking engine in an exciting development for high-speed aviation. The Venus Detonation Ramjet 2000 lb Thrust Engine (VDR2) was recently launched during the ...

Artillery has been for a very long time one of the best ways to fight the enemy from very far away. The ability to strike from a safe distance is a godsend for soldiers, as it gives them the ability ...

Breaking Mach 9.6 with an air-breathing engine wasn’t just a speed stunt. It confirmed that scramjets can operate where rockets once had the field to themselves,” said Harry J. Kazianis, citing the ...

GE Aerospace today announced the successful supersonic captive carry flight tests of its Atmospheric Test of Launched ...

GE Aerospace recently flight-tested the ATLAS, a solid-fueled ramjet capable of reaching speeds beyond Mach 5, with no moving parts.

In 1949 we saw the first aircraft, the Leduc 0.10, to fly entirely powered by a ramjet, which also directed compressed air into the engine – but this time compressed entirely by the aircraft's own ...

Venus Aerospace just took one giant leap toward hypersonic travel. The Houston-based startup successfully completed the first U.S. flight test of an exotic new type of engine, capable of enabling ...
