Open Source RamJet Aircraft Engine
Contents
Basics
- An aircraft grade ramjet
- Essentially a pipe with a combustion chamber + a specially designed air intake that uses the ram air effect for air compression
- Easy to build, yet fuel inefficient
- Is good for very high transonic to supersonic speeds though
Used For
