Have you seen this shit. They're testing it now. "Scramjet engine is designed to help aircraft reach Mach 6 or 3,600mph. Hypersonic technologies are being tested in the hope of being able to deliver strikes around the globe within minutes" 8)

Dont think this is true.  IF it is, then hell no other country on the planet would allow this tech, especially if it is based in the states.

...and it disintegrated within seconds.  It was blamed on a malfunctioning tail but, shit, at that speed in the insanity of the chaotic system that is our atmosphere it's like using a howitzer to fire a submerged ceramic dildo up a class VI rapid during springtime.  Sure you might think it will work but that phalli is going to have all the structural integrity of the Challenger spacecraft.  (Did you know Christa McAuliffe had blue eyes?)
