<br/><br/> "Hypersonic slender body aircraft are designed to generate lift by imparting a change in momentum on the fluid they pass through, typically through a continuously increasing radius or cone-shaped design. They have a variety of civil and military aerospace applications, including hypersonic aircraft, missiles, and strike weapons. They are also generating new interest from the private space industry as it develops new types of hypersonic transport planes and launch systems"-- Provided by publisher.
