American researchers are finally getting a real-time view inside one of the most unforgiving propulsion systems in service, ...
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 ...
The rotating detonation ramjet engine provides a more compact, lightweight design than standard engine designs, and uses a continuous, self-sustaining detonation wave. GE Aerospace and Lockheed Martin ...
For years, the United States has trailed behind Russia and China in hypersonic weapons. A new engine prototype by Lockheed ...
TL;DR: A hypersonic dual-mode ramjet engine is a high-speed air-breathing jet engine capable of operating efficiently at both lower and extremely high Mach speeds by utilizing dual combustion modes.
GE Aerospace reported it successfully demonstrated a hypersonic dual-mode ramjet it said could make possible “high-speed flight and longer range” for multi-mission aircraft. The developer also noted ...
Rotating Detonation Engines (RDE) have been flown by Venus Aerospace. They use continuous detonation waves for propulsion and provide 15% efficiency gains (in specific impulse or fuel consumption) ...
