Design-Manufacture and Full Testing Platform for anything
Hypersonic
Space Engine Systems (SES), following on its success in securing
a place in UK MoD’s Hypersonic Technology and Capability
Development Framework (HTCDF).
https://des.mod.uk/des-to-award-contracts-on-1-billion-framework-to-develop-uks-first-hypersonic-missile,
is pleased to announce a partnership with Applied Systems
Engineering Inc (ASEI) of the US. Coupling SES’ expertise in
advanced propulsion and spaceplane design with ASEI’s expertise in
navigation systems, launchers, and weapon design accumulated over
30 years, has resulted in a partnership with the goal of supporting
the UK’s stated aim to develop a sovereign Hypersonic technology
base.

SES, a Canadian leader in aerospace and space propulsion
technology since 2011, is uniquely positioned to support this
framework due to the technology that is currently being developed
in the building of the Hello series of hypersonic Spaceplanes which
will enable the lowest-cost transportation of payloads to space,
and ultimately enable the landing of humans on the Moon. This
development involves the use of advanced modelling & simulation
technologies and techniques in building advanced airframe
structures and materials to withstand the environment experienced,
during hypersonic travel. SES have successfully tested a multi-fuel
turbo-ramjet engine that will form the basis of our propulsion
solution for the Spaceplanes. SES will also leverage the inherent
advantages of working from Spaceports on two continents (Cornwall
Spaceport UK and a second Spaceport in the US) with dedicated teams
working in each of the locations.
In turn, ASEI, can provide quick reaction solutions for advanced
technology development in tactical navigation systems, embedded
software and electronics design and integration, with the ability
to demonstrate the technology effectively and with the facilities
to efficiently manufacture their products. ASEI has corporate
headquarters at Niceville, Florida and an operating location in
Tucson, Arizona.
In addition to its other strategic partners, including Graphene
Innovations Manchester and Meridian Space Command, Space Engine
Systems is rapidly moving to meet the demands of one of the UK’s
most pressing defence needs – hypersonic capability development –
while also progressing its advanced horizontal take-off and landing
space launch capability at the same time. In addition to the UK,
SES is also well positioned to support the defence needs of Canada
and its Allies in the design and build of hypersonic air breathing
missiles, with propulsion solutions including both a well proven
turbo-ramjet as well as a scramjet in development that would enable
velocities of up to Mach 7.
