The Solid Fuel Ramjet (SFRJ) and the Hypersonic Dual-Mode Ramjet (DMRJ) are seeing rapid success as the U.S. hikes spending and development of hypersonic weapons. GE Aerospace has shed more light on ...

A jet engine is any engine that can propel an aircraft of some kind via rearward expulsion of a jet of fluid, typically a hot exhaust gas that the engine generates by drawing in fuel from the ...

In the years following World War II, the American aviation industry and the military anticipated revolutionary changes in flight. The war had been fought largely with aircraft powered by reciprocating ...

That's because a ramjet operates on a different principle from a conventional jet engine. The kind of engines that power an airliner uses a series of fans and turbine impellers to draw in air and ...

GE Aerospace is advancing hypersonic flight with plans to scale up its dual-mode ramjet technology in 2025. To create a full propulsion system, engineers will improve sophisticated controls and use ...

Theoretical tests say that this beast of an engine should be capable of hypersonic flight over Mach 5+ (3,836 mph / 6,174 km/h), at considerably higher efficiency than other detonation engines – and ...
