Concept V has hypersonic speed and the ability to operate at different speeds for a smooth return trip. This uncrewed air vehicle is set to be the size of a Hawk trainer jet, but don't let its small size fool you - it can travel great distances and deliver shipments with ease.
But what makes the Concept V stand out from the rest? It's tough to track and near impossible to destroy, thanks to its super-fast capabilities.
The Hypersonic Air Vehicle Experimental (HVX) Program, along with aerospace engineering company Reaction Engines and defence agency DSTL, are working to make this jet a reality using air-breathing propulsion technology. And let's not forget about Rolls-Royce, who is also lending a hand in the creation of this reusable jet.
So how exactly will this hypersonic marvel be able to reach speeds of Mach 5? It all comes down to a special pre-cooler heat exchanger located at the front of the jet. While speed equals heat, and the heat generated in the gas turbine can cause problems by melting components, Reaction Engines' technology is able to cool things down quickly, dropping the temperature from a scorching 1000 degrees Celsius to a much more manageable ambient temperature in no time.
Get ready to soar to new heights with the Concept V, the ultimate hypersonic jet.

🚗 Introducing the Supreme Road Warrior: The Female Car Crash Test Dummy
https://www.cnn.com/2022/12/15/world/female-car-crash-test-dummy-spc-intl/index.html?fbclid=PAAaakpMUlImAEC0XFi8l55jkMvPRc10-dCTx-td8g7GZcnu_17V37kEKbLP8
It's about time that female car crash test dummies get their due recognition! For far too long, these invaluable models have been overlooked and underrepresented in the world of automotive safety testing.
But no longer! In a groundbreaking move, a leading manufacturer of car crash test dummies has announced the creation of a new female dummy that is specifically designed to better represent the unique anatomy and biomechanics of the female body.
Females are more prone to certain types of injuries in car accidents. In particular, females are more likely to sustain injuries to the spine and hips due to the fact that they have wider pelvises and hips making them more vulnerable in a crash. Females also sit closer to the steering wheel and pedals in order to reach them, which can also contribute ti the likelihood of certain types of injuries.
This is a huge step forward in the quest to ensure that all vehicles are as safe as possible for everyone on the road. After all, women are just as likely to be involved in car accidents as men, and they deserve to have their specific needs taken into account when it comes to designing and testing safety systems.
So let's all give a round of applause to this brave new dummy, and the engineers who worked tirelessly to bring her to life. She may not be able to feel the bumps and bruises of a crash test, but she's sure to make a big impact in the world of automotive safety.
