Topia!: Society: Military: Aviation: Aircraft: Experimental: X-43 Hyper-X (5) X-43, X-Planes Data Site - NASA has established a multi-year experimental hypersonic ground and flight test program called Hyper-X. The program seeks to demonstrate "air-breathing" engine technologies that promise to increase payload capacity or reduce vehicle size for the same payload for future hypersonic aircraft and/or reusable space launch vehicles. X-43A Hyper-X, Boeing Co. Site - The X-43A is an air-launched system designed to explore the hypersonic (Mach 5 +) region of flight and to acquire data for future vehicles. CNN - NASA fails to fly fastest plane - The X-43A, a "hypersonic" experimental aircraft attached to a Pegasus booster rocket, failed the first of three planned test flights. Hyper-X - For NASA's X-43 (Hyper-X) program, Orbital is providing three Pegasus-derivative rockets to boost small, unmanned research test vehicles to a specified altitude and velocity to demonstrate hypersonic scramjet propulsion technologies. X43A Project Summary - Hyper-X, NASA's multi-year hypersonic flight research program, seeks to overcome one of the greatest aeronautical research challenges - air-breathing hypersonic flight.
