Hydrogen-powered Scramjet

In essence, the Hydrogen-powered Scramjet is a jet engine that runs on hydrogen propellant. While it works a lot like a standard jet engine to start off, it becomes more fuel efficient once it enters supersonic speeds. Using the speed of the wind, a wind inlet funnels and compresses the wind into the engine. This also gives aircraft equipped with it a higher velocity than standard engines and ramjets.
