The applications for this discovery are immense, to say the least. with the capability of being to serve as a possible aircraft purpulsion plant,
"You would be flying before your teeth!!"
As a tactical application for aircraft, it set's the standards of going into the next generation's of our Stealth and low orbital capabilities.
Though they did not supply the actual video of the test, it look's as if the new generation of human speed and flight are here, or will be sooner
than anticipated. Applications are endless, the technology is amazing.
Future defence applications for hypersonic vehicles include long-range time critical missions, with civilian applications including low-cost satellite
launching and high-speed aircraft.
Something we should all be watching and waiting for. It would be the dominant factor of any conflict or humanitarian concepts for fast response with
unheard of speeds for an aircraft. They are not far off.
