Rotating detonation rocket engines for hypersonic flight

AerospaceDefense
What they build

The product

Venus Aerospace develops the VDR2 — a Rotating Detonation Rocket Engine (RDRE) — and Venus Detonation Ramjets aimed at Mach 5-6 propulsion for defense applications and a future one-hour global passenger spaceplane.

Why it matters

The thesis

RDRE is a step-change in propulsion efficiency that can fit into existing missile and aircraft form factors. America led the underlying physics; Venus is the company actually flying hardware on US soil.
