    McDonnell Douglas MD-2001 "Orient Express" Hypersonic Transport

    In the 90's exoatmosferic hypersonic airliners seemed near to enter production. 15 years before nobody talks about it. All that technology has been vanished after the NASP demonstrator program was cancelled?

    EADS Zehst Hypersonic Passenger Transport

    EADS has a design for a Zero Emission Hypersonic Transportation (Zehst) rocketplane. Of course there's an animation too: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6e33aPdoUxc I really don't get what EADS think they'll achieve publicising such designs that no one (not even the EU) will ever fund ...

    Ajax (Ayaks) hypersonic vehicles with MHD propulsion

    Development of the "Ajax" and "Neva" hypersonic flight vehicles with MHD (Magneto-Hydrodynamic) propulsion was initiated at the Leninets design bureau in late 1980s. There were apparently several configurations, some for hypersonic atmospheric flight, some for space launch. I have found some...

    DARPA - Integrated Hypersonics (IH) / HX concept (Falcon HTV follow-on?)

    Hi there, and hello back again... Just found an interesting bunch of illustrated material popping out of DARPA's IH (Integrated Hypersonics) program Proposer's days presentations. We have: (1) a notional HX boost-glide vehicle concept, clearly building upon the HTV-1 and HTV-2 experience...

    Space Engine Systems"SEXBOMB" Hypersonic Demonstrator

    ...away from getting a bit creative with the naming scheme, because of course a drone that proudly displays a "SEXBOMB" livery traveling at hypersonic speeds while the surface temperature of its skin raises sounds sexy :D...

    Basic repro desk model of 50s BOAC Hypersonic airliner (really Bristol 198 SST)

    Not particularly scale or a model but I had to have this. Described by the seller as a 1/144 BOAC Hypersonic Airliner. It is a pretty basic homemade job but it captures the look and feel of the models that sat on Travel Agents counters in the 50s and vaguely resembles some of the planes seen...

    British Secret Projects: Hypersonics, Ramjets and Missiles Released!

    ...and has answered many questions I have had for a long time regarding missile developments. It has also opened my eyes to the world of UK hypersonics, and I love the way it closes by hinting that this work may have passed to the US, and may be flying! It also illustrates a number of aircraft...

    China's hypersonic BGV >>> Wu-14 / DF-ZF / DF-17

    OMG, what a gain a BS-report. If China reveals a hypersonic-concept it's immediately some sort of "hypersonic-strike-aircraft". If such models appear anywhere else it is for civil hypersonic studies.
