Yunxing Hypersonic Jet: China’s Revolution in Global Aviation?

In this episode, Islamabad Files analyse the new Chinese Yunxing Hypersonic Jet, an aviation revolution, that is in making. Once the Britain-France Concorde was a Mach 2+ supersonic airliner (≈2,180 km/h), 7,222 km range, 60,000 ft cruise altitude, carrying ~100 passengers between London/Paris and New York in under 3.5 hours, powered by four afterburning Rolls-Royce/Snecma Olympus turbojets with a droop-nose for landing visibility; it proved technologically successful but commercially constrained by high fuel consumption and operating costs. Islamabad Files also examines the China’s Yunxing Hypersonic Jet, developed by Lingkong Tianxing Technologies, is a near-space, sub-orbital passenger concept targeting ~Mach 4 or beyond (~5,000 km/h) cruise close to the 100 km Kármán Line, aiming to reduce intercontinental travel to ≈2 hours with premium fares (US$30,000), contingent on solving extreme thermal protection, propulsion efficiency, certification, and economic viability challenges. #IslamabadFiles, #LingkongTianxingTechnology, #HypersonicJet, #Yunxing, #ChinaAerospace, #FutureOfAviation, #Mach4, #Mach5, #Spaceplane, #ConcordeLegacy, #HypersonicTravel, #MilitaryTech, #AerospaceRevolution Islamabad Files is an independent and impartial platform that provides audiences information and analysis, based on facts on topics such as wars, security, defense, tech and news from around the world.
