The Mysterious Aircraft Built to Break an Impossible Record
In the bustling Atlanta, Georgia, facility of the pioneering aerospace startup Hermeus Corporation, a crack team of scientists and engineers armed with a vast array of high-performance power tools make all-important tweaks to their revolutionary new aircraft, the Quarterhorse. Having already developed the turbine-based combined cycle Chimera engine, a machine as innovative as it is powerful, Hermeus is now busy creating the perfect vehicle to put its abilities to the test.
A sleek, sophisticated jet of the future, the Quarterhorse is being built with one clear objective: speed. As the prototypes zoom through the clouds at hypersonic velocities, pushing the limits of aviation technology, the Quarterhorse keeps its eye on the grand prize: the airspeed record set by the Blackbird SR-71 in 1976. Nearly 50 years later, the Blackbird remains number one, with no aircraft able to better its impressive feat. Yet, as the Quarterhorse project steams ahead, it seems there may finally be a challenger for the Blackbird’s crown.

    Carefully avoiding mentioning the X-51A Waverider that sustained Mach 5.1 (3,400 mph) in 2013.

    @shenmisheshou7002 Před 22 hodinami

    This will not be commercially viable unless it can carry over 250 passengers, which is highly unlikely. The problem is found in two words: Gates, and Slots. If you can only carry 100 passengers, it will take take you four trips to carry the same number of one Airbus A350. What that means is that you will need for landing slots and four gate visits. The A350 needs one landing slot and one gate. Also, the hub and spoke model means that if you only being in 100 passengers, your slower planes can't be filled to the same capacity and make your arrival/departure window for the connecting flights. As an executive jet, a hypersonic might have some appear, but the commercial airliners can't really get enough use out of this kind of plane to want to buy it. It is gates and slots that will keep this plane from being successful in the commercial market unless they can get at least 200 seats and baggage, and that would be quite an engineering feat. The Lear Jet could go faster than the Cessna Citation, but even though the Citation was slower, it could land at far more airports and carry more people. When the Citation came out, critics said it just was not fast enough to compete with Lear, but in two years, Lear sales plummeted, and the Citation line became the most successful business jet line in history. Speed is not everything.

    • @willymac5036
      @willymac5036 Před 13 hodinami

      The X15 used a rocket engine, not an air breathing engine. The difference is that a rocket engine provides its own oxidizer (which is why they work in space), jet engines use the oxygen in the surrounding air as its oxidizer.

    • @merlinbrother1177
      @merlinbrother1177 Před 9 hodinami

      The X15 was air launched by B52, SR 71 and its cousin's were capable of taking off like regular planes. Furthermore X15 was a research craft, SR71 was used in military service.

    • @AllTradesGeorge
      @AllTradesGeorge Před 5 hodinami

      On top of all of those factors, the X15 wasn't a production aircraft. It was a technology demonstrator/research vehicle. The Quarterhorse is also a demonstrator, but it's not really the one that will be the record-breaker...it's just proving or disproving the viability of their engine technology under actual flight conditions. When they've learned enough from the Quarterhorse program, they'll move into an actual production program...that's when the record would be considered broken, when a manned production jet-powered craft makes an unassisted launch, breaks the record, and then lands. Everything up to that point is just a step towards an attempt at the record.

    And the saucer is hitting in excess of 15,000 mph and the SR-71 even with this record number is only 1,900 mph. It's like an eighth of the speed While suffering none of the heat problems and using super cavitation so you don't have anybody even knowing you're in the airspace cuz you're running silent And when I say silent I mean hearing wise but also silent because any radar is going to get destroyed by the super cavitation cloud. You're just not going to get any feedback to your station so she's still silent
