Maximum practical Mach number is about Specific Impulse [s] 8,000 7,000 6,000 5,000 4,000 3,000,000,000 Turbofan Turbofan with afterburner Ramjet Rocket Mach Number Theoretical maximum Hydrogen fuel in air Theoretical maximum Hydrocarbon fuel in air For applications where we use lift, doubling the specific impulse is a big increase Wide range of applications Possibility of a large flight envelope, AFM 0 /6

Launch vehicles Either bring all the heavy scramjet equipment into orbit along with the payload (spaceplane) or (turn around and) fly the scramjet part back to the launch area. Military applications Out-and-back trajectories obviously require turning. Even circumnavigation requires some. Then what?, AFM 0 3/6
