Next comes Darkhorse, an uncrewed hypersonic military jet intended for mass production. After Darkhorse, the plan is to create Halcyon, a hypersonic passenger jet. [10] Hermeus' approach involves building one test vehicle per year, seeking hypersonic flight. [citation needed]
The German SpaceLiner is a suborbital hypersonic winged passenger spaceplane project under preliminary development. [when?] Precooled jet engines are jet engines with a heat exchanger at the inlet that cools the air at very high speeds. These engines may be practical and efficient at up to about Mach 5.5, and this is an area of research in ...
