Air Force's X-51A Hypersonic Scramjet Makes Record-Breaking Final Flight
May 3, 2013
SPACE.comMike Wall
NASA took a major step toward redefining high-speed flight on Nov. 16, 2004. The X-43A, a small, experimental aircraft, proved that an engine drawing oxygen from the atmosphere could propel an aircraft to hypersonic speeds – greater than Mach 5, or five times the speed of sound. During the flight over the Pacific Ocean west of California, the X-43A set the world speed record for a jet-powered aircraft, reaching Mach 9.6, or nearly 7,000 mph. The mission originated from NASA’s Armstrong Flight Re

Tivraverse on Instagram: "The X-43A didn’t look like a plane that would break records. It was tiny, flat, almost like a black dart with a gold edge. But NASA built it for one purpose: pure speed. Part of the Hyper-X program, it was meant to prove that scramjets weren’t just wind-tunnel dreams they could actually work in the real sky. Since it couldn’t take off on its own, a B-52 carried it up, a Pegasus rocket kicked it to insane speeds, and only then did the X-43A fire its scramjet. No onboard

ORMOUS 🌒 on Instagram: "This rare footage shows NASA testing the X-43A, an experimental uncrewed hypersonic research aircraft developed under the Hyper-X program. Because a scramjet engine cannot produce thrust at low speeds, the X-43A could not take off on its own. Instead, it was carried aloft beneath a B-52B Stratofortress, then released and accelerated by a Pegasus rocket booster. The booster propelled the vehicle to hypersonic speed—over Mach 5—before separating. Only after separation did
