A fleet of advanced hypersonic aircraft could be ferrying cargo and passengers to space by the middle of the century, according to a new report.
According to the paper, China plans to complete and verify all components necessary for hypersonic flight by the middle of the decade. This will include next-generation"air-breathing" engines that will take in oxygen and push the plane to five or six times the speed of sound.
The new propellant technology could operate at one-hundredth of the cost of traditional rockets, its report said. Illustrations featured in the bimonthly Chinese journal"Physics of Gases" show designs for China's hypersonic jet, which is under development and could be operational before the end of the decade.By 2035, China plans to have a fleet of hypersonic jets that can ferry up to 10 passengers to anywhere on Earth within an hour,said.
