China creates new Ram-Rotor Detonation Engine to boost hypersonic flight
SMRTR summary
Chinese researchers have developed a new hypersonic engine concept called the Ram-Rotor Detonation Engine (RRDE), combining a ramjet with a rotary detonation engine. The design aims to provide continuous thrust, operate at lower start-up speeds, and improve efficiency for hypersonic flight, potentially making high-speed travel more feasible.
