Hypersonix Launch Systems has set a late February window for the DART AE launch, powered by a 3D-printed SPARTAN scramjet engine. Printed in Inconel 718, the engine eliminates moving parts while surviving extreme thermal stress at Mach 5+. This mission validates additive manufacturing as a systemic enabler for low-cost hypersonic testing. By unifying complex assemblies, Hypersonix is reducing lead times from months to just weeks. 🚀✈️
