US government claims that Russian state-sponsored hackers were responsible for a massive power outage during the civil unrest period in 2015. And that's what they're capable of. Hackers today can cut power to crucial places like hospitals and police stations, and can even cause nuclear power plants to melt down. 3. Sukhoi PAK FA T-50 via gentleseas.blogspot.ca The Sukhoi PAK FA T-50 is Russia's 5th generation fighter jet. Like America's F-35, it's not ready for deployment, and it will take almost a decade before this plane is perfected and ready to be mass-produced. It has seen a fair few snags along the development phase, but make no mistake; this plane is a seriously advanced weapon. It is designed for air superiority, which basically means killing other planes. It also features advanced stealth features and will be able to attack ground targets as well. One of the advantages it has other jet fighters is its extreme maneuverability. This thing can turn virtually on a dime. It can come to a full stop in mid-air and hover there like a UFO. This is extremely useful in dogfighting because it enables the plane to dodge missiles and get itself into a firing position on other planes with ease. In 2020, the preexisting engines will be replaced by much more powerful versions and by that time the plane should be ready for service. 2. Zircon Hypersonic Missile via sputniknews.com Russia is about 4 generations ahead of America in its development of hypersonic missiles. Their newest missile, called the Zircon, will be ready for service in 2017. This missile is capable of speeds of up to Mach 6. That's more than twice the speed of conventional missiles. Why is this important? Because hypersonic missiles are almost impossible to stop. Missiles travelling that fast are very hard to track and destroy. Hypersonic missiles can be used to intercept nuclear warheads. They can also carry nukes themselves. The Russians are getting ready to equip its ships, bombers, and submarines with the Zircon. In comparison, America is nowhere near ready to getting a hypersonic missile to even be operational. The most they've been able to do is get a missile going at hypersonic speeds for 6 seconds. In addition, Russia is working on a top-secret project called the Yu-74, which is reportedly an attack plane capable of hypersonic speeds. 1. PAK-DA Space Bomber via www.dailymail.co.uk Today, Russia's space program is superior to America's. This is incredibly dangerous because Russia is beginning to weaponize space and their newest project is a bomber that will fly in space, operating far out of reach. This plane (or spacecraft) is known as the PAK-DA space bomber. This plane will be travelling at high speeds and will be invisible to radar. It will be impossible to touch essentially. The plane will be equipped with a hybrid engine that will switch to methane and oxygen once it reaches space. This plane will carry hypersonic missiles, armed with nukes if necessary. There are so many

UCF researchers say they've trapped a sustained explosive detonation, fixed in place, for the first time, channeling its enormous power into thrust in a new oblique wave detonation engine that could propel an aircraft up to 17 times the speed of sound, potentially beating the scramjet as a hypersonic propulsion method.Deflagration – the high-temperature burning of fuel with oxygen – is a relatively slow, safe and controlled way to release chemical energy and turn it into motion, that's why this nice, peaceful form of combustion underpins so much of our transport technology. But if you want to release the maximum possible energy from a unit of fuel, you get far better bang for your buck from ... well, a bang. Detonation is fast, chaotic and frequently destructive. It doesn't necessarily require oxygen, just a single explosive material and some kind of energetic poke big enough to break the chemical bonds holding an already-unstable molecule together. It creates exothermic shockwaves that accelerate outwards at supersonic speeds, releasing enormous amounts of energy.People have been trying to harness the raw power of detonation – the most powerful form of combustion – for more than 60 years, but putting a bridle on a bomb has proven extremely difficult. Pulse detonation engines create a series of repeated explosions in a manner similar to a pulse jet, and these have already been tested in aircraft – notably in the Scaled Composites Long-EZ "Borealis" project built by the US Air Force Research Laboratory and Innovative Scientific Solutions Incorporated back in 2008.Rotating detonation engines, in which the shockwaves from one detonation are tuned to trigger further detonations within a ring-shaped channel, were thought of as impossible to build right up until researchers at the University of Central Florida (UCF) went ahead and demonstrated a prototype last year in sustained operation. Due for testing in a rocket launch by around 2025, rotating detonation engines should be more efficient than pulse detonation engines simply because the combustion chamber doesn't need to be cleared out between detonations.Now, another team from UCF, including some of the same researchers that built the rotating detonation engine last year, says it's managed a world-first demonstration of an elusive third type of detonation engine that could out-punch them all, theoretically opening up a pathway to aircraft flying at speeds up to 13,000 mph (21,000 km/h), or 17 times the speed of sound.The standing wave, or oblique wave detonation engine (OWDE), aims to produce a continuous detonation that's stable and fixed in space, making for a ruthlessly efficient and controllable propulsion system generating significantly more power and using less fuel than current technology allows.The UCF team claims it has successfully stabilized a detonation wave under hypersonic flow conditions, keeping it in place rather than having it move upstream (where it could cause the fuel source to explode) or downstream (where it would lose its explosive advantage and fizzle out into a deflagration).

US Army to deploy 1st Dark Eagle hypersonic missile, can hit 1,725-mile away at Mach 5The LRHW is designed as a strategic weapon with a range of approximately 1,725 miles.Updated: Mar 03, 2025 12:51 PM ESTThe U.S. Army is set to roll out its Long-Range Hypersonic Weapon (LRHW), known informally as Dark Eagle, to its first operational unit by the end of fiscal year 2025, a defense official reportedly confirmed.This announcement comes after considerable delays due to challenges faced during the weapon’s testing phases.The LRHW is designed as a strategic weapon with a range of approximately 1,725 miles.This system comprises a ground-launched missile equipped with a hypersonic glide body alongside the necessary transport, support, and fire control equipment.With speeds exceeding 3,800 miles per hour, the missile can soar to the edge of the Earth’s atmosphere, evading current air and missile defense systems before delivering its payload with little warning.In its operational capacity, the LRHW aims to counter Anti-Access/Area Denial (A2/AD) strategies, neutralize long-range enemy capabilities, and target high-value objectives.The Army’s collaboration with the Navy is integral to the LRHW’s development, which features the Common Hypersonic Glide Body (C-HGB) and a 34.5-inch booster developed by the naval forces.Lockheed Martin and Northrop Grumman are reportedly responsible for developing the missile component of the LRHW.When the hypersonic glide body is attached, it is known as the Navy-Army All-Up Round plus Canister (AUR+C).This missile serves as a common two-stage booster for the Army’s LRHW and the Navy’s Conventional Prompt Strike (CPS) system, allowing for its deployment from multiple platforms, including surface vessels and submarines.Mach 5The C-HGB, meanwhile, is said to be based on an alternate re-entry system that the Army developed in conjunction with Sandia National Laboratories.Dynetics, a subsidiary of Leidos, is currently under contract to create prototypes of this glide body for both

Now will be learning how to dynamically alter the fuel mix, flow speed and ramp angle to keep a detonation stable, reliable and controllable over a wide range of operating conditions and control inputs. Top: the detonation structure for three phases during the test run. Bottom: the static pressure in the test chamber leaps up and is sustained for the duration of the fuel flowUniversity of Central Florida The OWDE has been spoken of theoretically for some time, as a potentially superior form of hypersonic propulsion to the scramjet. Scramjets tend to lose efficiency as airspeed rises, potentially topping out around Mach 14. The experimental results released by UCF point toward a "Sodramjet" (standing oblique detonation ramjet) aircraft capable of flying between Mach 6 and Mach 17. What does it all mean? Well, hypersonic air travel at speeds up to Mach 17 won't just open the door to potential sub-30 minute flights between New York and Los Angeles. It'll also enable spaceplanes to efficiently fly themselves right up into orbit without strapping themselves to rocket boosters. And there could of course be some significant implications for national security and the global nuclear balance of power.As our own David Szondy pointed out in this terrific hypersonic flight explainer from 2017, there's not a radar or missile defense system in the world that could cope with a hypersonic missile at this point. What's more, you wouldn't even need a warhead on it to cause levels of devastation rivaling that of a nuclear bomb. "All that speed and all that inertia turns any research platform, recon unit, or passenger aircraft into a potential kinetic weapon," writes Szondy. "They don't need high explosives to destroy a target. All they have to do is hit it. In other words, any hypersonic vehicle is an intrinsic weapon given the proper modifications."Indeed, the research was funded not only by the National Science Foundation and the NASA Florida Space Grant Consortium, but by the Air Force Office of Scientific Research. So these bottled explosion engines are clearly a matter of military interest. The paper is open-access at PNAS.Source: University of Central Florida
