It was the first such test of an inflatable decelerator from Earth-orbital speed. LOFTID was launched on an Atlas V 401 in November 2022 as a secondary payload, along with the JPSS-2 weather satellite. [2] It deployed successfully and landed in the ocean near Hawaii on November 10, 2022, which NASA stated on November 17 was a "huge success". [3 ...
This test included both the booster and hypersonic glide vehicle. [35] The USAF 412th Test Wing used a B-52H Stratofortress, at Edwards Air Force Base. [36] Test was deemed a success, test range sensors malfunctioned, preventing the Air Force from fully knowing whether the glide vehicle and warhead performed as intended in the terminal flight ...
The Army and Navy's Common Hypersonic Glide Body (C-HGB) had a successful test of a prototype in March 2020. [99] [97] A wind tunnel for testing hypersonic vehicles was completed in Texas (2021). [100] The Army's Land-based Hypersonic Missile "is intended to have a range of 2,300 km (1,400 mi)".
This successful first flight of the Erinyes vehicle demonstrates a new and novel platform capability for rapid hypersonic experimentation for the U.S. Department of Defense. The exercise, designated Hypersonic Test Bed-1 (HTB-1), demonstrated hypersonic flight that enabled the collection of data for multiple experiments to be provided to test ...
The first full-scale supersonic passenger jet is expected to perform its maiden flight in 2027, according to the South China Morning Post, who first reported the test flight. If successful, the ...
U.S. aerospace company Stratolaunch conducted the first powered test flight of a new unmanned craft for hypersonic research on Saturday and called it a success. Chief Executive Officer Zachary ...
India has successfully tested a domestically developed long-range hypersonic missile, it said on Sunday, attaining a key milestone in military development. India's successful test of hypersonic ...
India is pushing ahead with the development of ground and flight test hardware as part of an ambitious plan for a hypersonic cruise missile. [4]The Defence Research and Development Laboratory's Hypersonic Technology Demonstrator Vehicle (HSTDV) is intended to attain autonomous scramjet flight for 20 seconds, using a solid rocket launch booster.
