The new military projects

The new engines like ramjets and scramjets are making it possible to make brand new military technology. The new type of hyper-fast aircraft is rising to air and the only problem with the ramjet and scramjet engines is that they cannot flight slowly at all. So the flight profile of the super- and hypersonic aircraft will be that they are accelerating by using regular turbines or rocket engines until the speed of the craft allows that the ramjets or scramjets would ignite. 

In some visions, the new super- and hypersonic weapons can glide back to base, if they are not needed. The fact is that the newest and the most effective stealth-interceptors are not introduced to the great public and all military forces around the world want to keep their best weapons out from the enemy intelligence. 

There is the possibility that the new hypersonic cruise missiles would pull airborne by using jet fighters, which would make strategic bombers old-fashion. In that case, the fighters like F-15 and F-35 can pull the strategic hypersonic missile to airborne, and then the rocket engine of the acceleration system can start. When the speed of that system is high enough, that system will ignite the scramjet engine. That kind of system can be a good alternative for the B-52 bombers. 



The fact is that the HCS (Hypersonic Glide Systems) and HCS (Hypersonic Cruise Systems) can launch to their targets from aircraft or by a ballistic missile. The ballistic missile will carry that missile outside from the atmosphere, and then it can dive back. 

The system can have its internal scramjet engines or it can just glide to the target. And this is the thing that makes those systems dangerous. The hypersonic missile is stealth because its speed requires a certain shape. 

And the stealth systems are leaving so short warning time that the opponent can launch their missiles accidentally. Without stealth technology, the aircraft or missile can ever reach the target. So stealth guarantees that the mission is done, and that is why this kind of weapon is necessary for both offensive and defensive roles.

Plasmonic waves can make new waves in quantum technology.

"LSU researchers have made a significant discovery related to the fundamental properties and behavior of plasmonic waves, which can lead ot the development of more sensitive and robust quantum technologies. Credit: LSU" (ScitechDaily, Plasmonics Breakthrough Unleashes New Era of Quantum Technologies) Plasmonic waves in the quantum gas are the next-generation tools. The plasmonic wave is quite similar to radio waves. Or, rather say it, a combination of acoustic waves and electromagnetic waves. Quantum gas is an atom group. In those atom groups, temperature and pressure are extremely low.  The distance of atoms is long. And when an electromagnetic system can pump energy to those atoms. But the thing in quantum gas is that the atoms also make physical movements like soundwaves. It's possible. To create quantum gas using monoatomic ions like ionized noble gas. In those systems, positive (or negative) atoms push each other away.  When the box is filled with quantum gas and som

Metamaterials can change their properties in an electric- or electro-optical field.

"Researchers have created a novel metamaterial that can dynamically tune its shape and properties in real-time, offering unprecedented adaptability for applications in robotics and smart materials. This development bridges the gap between current materials and the adaptability seen in nature, paving the way for the future of adaptive technologies. Credit: UNIST" (ScitechDaily, Metamaterial Magic: Scientists Develop New Material That Can Dynamically Tune Its Shape and Mechanical Properties in Real-Time) Metamaterials can change their properties in an electric- or electro-optical field.  An electro-optical activator can also be an IR state, which means. The metamorphosis in the material can thermally activate.  AI is the ultimate tool for metamaterial research. Metamaterials are nanotechnical- or quantum technical tools that can change their properties, like reflection or state from solid to liquid when the electric or optical effect hits that material. The metamaterial can cru
