Scramjet from Popular Science. The first true reusable, free-flying scramjet could be Darpa's HTV-3X. It is also known as Blackswift. The HTV-3x could make its inaugural flight as early as 2012.

SYDNEY, Australia --An experimental, hypersonic air-breathing rocket that could herald a low-cost, high-speed space age was launched successfully Tuesday in the Australian Outback. But scientists said ...

A small group of Australian scientists made aviation history July 30 with the successful atmospheric test of a supersonic air-breathing engine in flight. Working with a budget most big science ...

According to the U.S. Air Force, the flight test for the experimental X-51A WaveRider plane which could potentially travel up to 4500mph has resulted in failure. As previously reported on SmartPlanet, ...

A scramjet engine made by Northrop Grumman set a record for the highest thrust produced by an air-breathing hypersonic engine in US Air Force history. Ground tests of the 5.5m (18ft)-long engine were ...

A team of engineers at the Air Force Research Laboratory and Air Force Test Center have set a record for the highest thrust produced by an air-breathing hypersonic engine in the military branch's ...

It's time to redefine the definition of fast. A Boeing 747? Too slow. The SR-71 Blackbird? Yawn. A scramjet hurtling at Mach 10, or 11,000 km/h (6,800 mph)? Now that's cooking with supersonically ...
