Ramjet engines provide a simple and lightweight propulsion system designed for supersonic flight. They draw in large amounts of air through the engine inlet using the forward motion of the aircraft.

Chinese "Space Transportation" company, Lingkong Tianxing Technology, has successfully tested its new JinDou400, also known as JinDouyun, ramjet detonation engine nearly twice the altitude of ...

Built around a small ramjet engine, it has a range of 93 miles (150 km), can fly at Mach 3.5, and can reach an altitude of 65,000 ft (19,800 m). Sceptre with aerofoils stowed.

Between Mach 2 and Mach 3, the turbojet transitions to a ramjet engine, which powers the plane at hypersonic speed. “That's actually pretty tricky and pretty difficult,” Case said.

Venus Aerospace unveiled the Venus Detonation Ramjet 2000 lb Thrust Engine, also known as "VDR2", at Up.Summit, marking a major breakthrough in high speed flight.

In just 12 months start to finish, GE Aerospace built and tested a breakthrough dual-mode ramjet engine with a rotating combustion detonation system. GE Aerospace joint venture set to hit ...

Hermeus demonstrated that its engine can transition from turbojet—like what’s used in passenger aircraft—to ramjet, a much more powerful engine technology. Hermeus, a startup building a ...

The precooler is part of their larger turbine-based combined cycle (TBCC) engine. Their TBCC engine, named Chimera, is a full-range, air-breathing hypersonic engine combining a turbine with a ramjet.

The Hypersonic Dual-Mode Ramjet test, believed to be the first of its kind, exploited rotating detonation combustion technology. General Electric Aerospace announced a successful demonstration of ...

Some ramjet and scramjet engines can even break the sound barrier, allowing aircraft to move at a hypersonic speed thanks to the engine's unique architecture. Let's look at the differences between ...
