Project Description:
Multidisciplinary design and analysis of a hypersonic missile vehicle, sized specifically to fit on the wing pylons of a Boeing F/A-18E/F. Optimized for cost, range, and lethality. Prospective performance and mission goals include sustained airbreathing Mach 4 cruise, downrange performance in excess of 1000 km, max payload capacity of 100 kg, developed for deep strike, SEAD capability from tactical engagement distances, ground impact speed of Mach 2, and 15g maneuverability in the terminal dive phase.
