US military shows off ‘game-changing’ rocket
Story by Talker News • 18h

By Dean Murray

The U.S. military has shown off a 'game-changing' rocket - based on 1960s tech.

A test saw a ramjet missile engine weapon fired from an unmanned aircraft - a development set to allow greater range and speed.

The Naval Air Warfare Center Weapons Division (NAWCWD) successfully air-launched the Solid Fuel Integral Rocket Ramjet (SFIRR) from an unmanned vehicle for the first time, which they say is "one step toward modernising missile technology."

A BQM-34 unmanned aerial target, which is remotely piloted during flight, released the test missile over California's Point Mugu Sea Range.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Isn't everything a "game changer," for a week or two? :whistle:
