GE and Lockheed ground tested a new air-breathing hypersonic jet engine capable of powering missiles to speeds well in excess ...

A Florida team working with the US Air Force claims that it's built and tested an experimental model of a rotating detonation rocket engine, which uses spinning explosions inside a ring channel to ...

The compact, liquid-fuelled ramjet engine uses a novel combustion technology called rotating detonation that offers significantly improved efficiency for high-speed flight at Mach 5 and beyond.

On January 14, GE Aerospace and Lockheed Martin revealed the results of a new ...

Combining the technologies could improve efficiency enough to make hypersonic projectiles much more affordable.

Disk rotating detonation engines could provide engines that are 10% more efficient, which could enable hypersonic planes. The USA, China, and Russia will be ramping up hypersonic weapon and hypersonic ...

NASA believes the rotating detonation engine could be the future of deep space travel, and it's getting strong results in prototype testing. Combustion engines are tried and true, and however angry ...

A startup high-speed flight company from Houston, Texas, has successfully tested its Rotating Detonation Rocket Engine (RDRE) ultimately aimed at allowing travel at four to six times the speed of ...

The Rotating Detonation Engine being developed by Pratt & Whitney has no moving parts, which reduces complexity and costs, and could help enable high-speed, long-range flight with increased efficiency ...

Yesterday, Vladimir Putin presented his country with a belated Christmas present: the Avangard hypersonic missile. According to Russian media, it's capable of reaching Mach 20. And if its ability to ...

A new rotating detonation engine could revolutionize rocket launches—if it can be made stable enough. That’s a big “if,” and one that researchers are hoping to explore using a new mathematical model ...
