Combining the technologies could improve efficiency enough to make hypersonic projectiles much more affordable.

For years, the United States has trailed behind Russia and China in hypersonic weapons. A new engine prototype by Lockheed Martin and General Electric could help it catch up.

Two revolutionary aerospace technologies collide as GE Aerospace and Lockheed Martin team up to demonstrate a new ...

GE and Lockheed ground tested a new air-breathing hypersonic jet engine capable of powering missiles to speeds well in excess ...

The compact, liquid-fuelled ramjet engine uses a novel combustion technology called rotating detonation that offers ...

On January 14, GE Aerospace and Lockheed Martin revealed the results of a new ...

Researchers in China have introduced a new hypersonic engine concept by integrating a ramjet with a rotary detonation engine. A team at Tsinghua University in Beijing created a new design known as the ...

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) ...

I assume that if the detonation/flame front is itself rotating within the combustion chamber/channel/however one chooses to contain and direct it, then the expanding shockwave from the exhaust plume ...

A US-based propulsion company has successfully launched and flown a new rocket powered by a unique rotating detonation engine. Although relatively small by rocket standards, the test could pave the ...

A new type of rocket engine, one that could power a plane from Los Angeles to Tokyo in just two hours, has eluded scientists for decades. Houston’s Venus Aerospace says it recently solved the puzzle.

A series of tests have demonstrated the viability of a liquid-fueled rotating detonation ramjet for hypersonic missiles, ...
