Abstract

The US Air Force has recognized "hypersonics" as one of the key technologies to be developed for the 21^st century and that hypersonic technology and ramjet/SCRamjet propulsion offer potentially large increases in speed, altitude and range with flexible recall, en route redirection and return to base for military operations such as interceptor, reconnaissance and orbital transport. In pursuing this direction, the Air Force Research Laboratory at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, OH, is "heading" towards research on space and related activities. The focus is on guidance and control (G&C) strategies for hypersonic vehicles. In this paper, we focus Why there is resurrection in hypersonics, What are the issues and challenges in G&C for hypersonic vehicles and finally When this program is expected to have an operational capability.
