Russia Developed New Fuel to Power Mach 5 Hypersonic Missiles





http://bit.ly/1zfNXza Russia’s Defense Ministry has developed a new hypersonic missile fuel, a senior defense official has announced. According to Russian state-media outlets, Army General Dmitry Bulgakov, the deputy minister of defense, told reporters on Tuesday that the ministry has developed special new fuel to enable missiles to fly at hypersonic speeds. Unlike the U.S. and China, both of whom focus their hypersonic development efforts on boost-glide vehicles, Russia and India are seeking to build hypersonic cruise missiles. The two countries already developed the BrahMos missile together. Considered the fastest cruise missile in the world, BrahMos has achieved speeds of Mach 3 (3,675 m/h). http://bit.ly/1AUGjgK
