Description
In the era of great power competition, the Department of the Air Force (DAF) has prioritized the development and fielding of high Mach systems to maintain and enhance the Air Force’s global presence capabilities. These systems fulfil a variety of roles ranging from long-range time critical strike in denied environments to penetrating surveillance and high Mach transport. As part of this strategy, it is also necessary to develop larger scramjet engines which could support a variety of missions. The larger scales inherent to these engines for multi-mission platforms will create unique challenges for propulsion systems. The technologies developed by FGC Plasma for its commercial and other hypersonic applications will be leveraged for this phase I effort to explore the potential benefits FGC Plasma's technology may have for a larger DMRJ.
