Elon Musk builds speed trains and Airbus invests in super fly. The trend is clear: travel to go significantly faster. Aircraft giant jet can take you from London to New York in just one hour.
Aircraft giant Airbus has received a patent approved for a superfast jets to reach to reach speeds of Mach 4.5. That is 4.5 times faster than sound – that goes for 1 200 km / h.
Deepak Gupta on Patentyogi mean that the jet could take passengers from London to New York in an hour – Patentyogi is a group of patent professionals who want to help startup companies and inventors with patent litigation.

A typical flight between London and New York will take about 7-8 hours a standard A330. The same trip took 3.5 hours for the supersonic Concorde as the max allowed to go to Mach2. Mach 1 is equal to the speed of sound, which is about 340 meters per second, or about 1 200 km / h.
The patent describes the Airbus plane will be operated by three different engines.
As the plane takes off, a pair of turbo jets that are mounted underneath and a rocket motor which is mounted on the back of the plane. As the plane takes off, it shall rise vertically – like a space rocket. Shortly before the plane reaches the speed of sound is turned turbojetsen and fold in. The rocket motor then take the plane to an altitude of 30,500 meters and then the engine switched off and also folds into the fuselage. Then comes the third engine source into the picture – so-called frame jets, which simply explained, jet engines where the air drawn in for combustion is compressed by plane moves forward.

The idea is then that the plane must reach a speed of more than 4 800 km / h.
aircraft will be powered by hydrogen, which is stored in different forms of plane itself. Airbus says that the plane’s aerodynamics have been designed to limit the shock wave once it reaches supersonic speeds – the Concorde plane disappeared not only because of a terrible accident outside Paris, tough competition from Boeing’s jumbo jets and concerns that the plan could damage the ozone layer, but also for To supersonic only allowed sea because of the fear to crush the boxes on the ground.
Airbus believes that their new “sound bangs-friendly” supersonic jet could benefit greatly in both civil and military – civilian it could act as a private jet with room for 20 passengers, the military would be able to carry commandos and conduct reconnaissance missions.
Airbus also expects that the new superjetplanet be able to fly between Tokyo and Los Angeles in three hours. ScienceAlert still feel that it is unlikely that the jet ever goes into production, but that the technology could be used in the Airbus less “extreme” products.
