One of my favorites amongst the reversed wings aircraft. Of course the X-02
gets the top for this aircraft type.

Have any idea what is "pulse detonation" ?
VOID Report This Comment Date: February 09, 2006 12:52AM
Well pulse detonation or PDE is a in testing design engine. Right now there is
no practicaal design for these engines yet there has been a proven basic concept
to this. basically the engine works by mixing fuel with oxygen (air) to make a
flammable mixture so it will ignite. Tjis all creates a ton of pressure which is
forced out through a nozzle making thrust. hope that answers your question.
