On January 21, 2025, DRDO successfully conducted a scramjet engine combustion test to analyze if the engine could ignite and sustain combustion. Unlike traditional jet engines, scramjet engines carry out combustion efficiently. This video covers the entire explanation of this technology. Moreover, the reason behind why countries are actively pursuing this technology is also covered.
