The set of problems that have never had a “just run it in the tunnel” has never had a hypersonics set. What X-43A has brought ...

SpaceWorks Enterprises and Stratolaunch will utilize their respective X-60 and Talon-A platforms for the program.

NASA awards studies to SpaceWorks and Stratolaunch aimed at making hypersonic flight testing more affordable and repeatable.

Stratolaunch built and operates the world’s largest airplane by wingspan. It is the twin-fuselage Roc, which serves as an air-launch platform for reusable hypersonic vehicles. Their primary focus is ...

Hypersonic flight may seem like the biggest shove to the envelope since the sound barrier was broken in 1947 and rotating detonation may look like a quantum leap in propulsion, but combining the two ...

Hypersonic vehicles — aircraft that can reach speeds of Mach 5 and beyond — are subject to extreme conditions while they are in flight, requiring strong yet aerodynamic materials to keep them both in ...

The DRDO is displaying LR-AShM along with its launcher. The missile system is designed to meet the coastal battery ...

Shaped much like a miniature NASA space shuttle, Stratolaunch's uncrewed, rocket-propelled Talon-A2 aircraft detached in midair from the world's largest plane in March and zoomed up to dizzying speeds ...

Could a hypersonic vehicle take flight this weekend in the deserts of Southeastern California? It appears Stratolaunch, an aerospace company based in Mojave about 100 miles north of Los Angeles, is ...

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 once-fictional goal of reducing hours-long journeys to just one is now a major step closer. Professor Nicholaus Parziale and team at the Stevens Institute of Technology in the US have offered ...

Stratolaunch may conduct another hypersonic test flight this weekend from California's Mojave Air & Space Port. The flights are part of a Department of Defense program to test advanced capabilities ...
