Boeing has long been a leader in hypersonic technology.
“The Boeing-built Air Force X-51 Waverider scramjet-powered vehicle set a world record for air-breathing hypersonic flight in 2013,” says a story at GeekWire, “and just a couple of months ago, Boeing unveiled its latest concept for a hypersonic demonstrator airplane.”
Today Boeing announced that its HorizonX venture investment arm is joining Rolls-Royce and BAE Systems “on a $37.3 million Series B investment round for Reaction Engines, a British aerospace startup is focusing on a hybrid rocket-jet propulsion technology that could send aircraft zipping into space and back at multiple times the speed of sound.”
