Boeing say
hypersonic jets could be airborne in "20 or 30 years", depending on the progress of the project.
"Boeing is building upon a foundation of six decades of work designing, developing and flying experimental
hypersonic vehicles, which makes us the right company to lead the effort in bringing this technology to market in the future."
The Air Force recently announced it was awarding a contract of almost $1 billion to Lockheed Martin to design and build a
hypersonic vehicle.
'When it comes to a
hypersonic system that's going to carry a significant payload, there are a number of technical challenges,' he explained.
Based on the
hypersonic flow field data obtained in the repeatable laboratory simulations using ballistic range [11] or plasma wind tunnel [12], more practical physical models of
hypersonic flow field can be established using the CFD technique [17].
In view of the fact that the change of flow state in the
hypersonic boundary layer directly affects the propulsion efficiency and maneuverability of the
hypersonic vehicle, and results in aerodynamic drag and significantly increased wall heating, laminar flow control (LFC) technologies are addressed.
In this paper, we try to estimate the parameters of system fault in the
hypersonic flight dynamics and then the "dynamic inversion" of the actuator fault can be included in the control signal.
However,
hypersonic weapons would render them meaningless, causing greater tension among countries that take at least some reassurance from their BMD systems.
In Section 2, a planar slab of RBSN Ceralloy 147-010F in a
hypersonic environment is modeled as inhomogeneous planar layer (IPL) structure based on Equivalent Transmission Line Method.
This requirement created the foundation of the Pentagon's support for CPGS during the Bush and Obama administrations and the subsequent turn to
hypersonic weapons that offer all of the above-mentioned strategic options.
A
HYPERSONIC passenger jet which could reduce flights to the Far East to under three hours has been in the pipeline for nearly a decade.
MOSCOW - Russia's Perspective Research Foundation (FPI) is creating an integrated system of modeling for the development of
hypersonic aircraft.
