Hypersonic Jet to Revolutionize Air Travel

Venus Aerospace plans to test a hypersonic jet in 2025, capable of flying from New York to London in just sixty minutes. Equipped with the Venus Detonation Ramjet 2000 lb Thrust Engine, the jet reaches speeds of up to Mach 6. Partnering with Velontra, they aim to transform air travel norms and advance the high-speed flight economy.
Venus Aerospace is poised to redefine air travel with a hypersonic jet set to test in 2025, capable of flying from New York to London in just 60 minutes.

At the heart of this groundbreaking technology is the Venus Detonation Ramjet 2000 lb Thrust Engine, allowing speeds up to Mach 6.

Venus Aerospace, in collaboration with Velontra, intends to explore the vast potential of hyperspeed flight, utilizing traditional engines for takeoff before shifting to rocket propulsion at higher altitudes, offering passengers views of the curvature of Earth.

This collaboration aims to turn high-speed flight economy into a reality, with Velontra ready to engineer what has previously been theoretical.

The race for hypersonic technology includes other industry players like Sierra Space, Hermeus, and China's Space Transportation, all striving for rapid and efficient travel, though hurdles like sonic boom noise and safety remain.
