X-43A
« on: 17 Dec 2004, 19:54:59 »
this isnt desperate, just a point of interest. has anyone been following the NASA project nicknamed "scramjet". Its a new form of hypersonic transport that could get from London to Sydney in around 2 hours and it travels around mach 10 i believe. Anyone thought about it for an addon. It would probably only appear in a cameo role but could be good for intros and spying missions. Just in case you don't believe me:

I've read about these, last I heard there's also talk about using the design as a surface-to-orbit craft.

Still, there's no real practical purpose of having one of these in ofp, unless you made a staic version for destroy-the-prototye missions all it caould be used for is a Intro-cameo. It doesn't really sound like it's worth the effort of making  :-\
