The German HyTEx, or Hypersonic Technology Experiment, was a hypersonic aircraft conceptualized by the aerospace manufacturer MBB (Messerschmitt-Bolkow-Blohm). Predecessor to the Saenger II and successor to the Saenger I, the HyTEx would demonstrate technologies required for high Mach air-breathing flight. To do this, the vehicle would target speeds in excess of Mach 5.5.

This rendition is a single-stage spaceplane capable of 400 tons to low Earth orbit. Greater payload is possible, but more kerolox must be added, and takeoff performance would drastically decrease. This build can achieve air-breathing speeds up to Mach 3 before flame-out.

    After we dl, I was checking the stats and the Δv is 5.19 whereas the auto post shows only 3.1. I looked back at another and there may be a trend . Will post if I find the one or anymore
