Despite the “God of War” establishing new bases, the United States Air Force stands out as truly exceptional.
Hermes’ hypersonic Quarterhorse jet has the potential to become the future’s leading aircraft, potentially surpassing Lockheed Martin’s hypersonic SR-72 even before it becomes operational.
The United States is conducting tests on a classified hypersonic aircraft to outperform the SR-72.
The Quarterhorse has achieved groundbreaking advancements, greatly impressing the United States Air Force. Their admiration is evident as they have granted the startup company a $60-million contract to conduct flight tests on the Quarterhorse.

The Quarterhorse is estimated to reach speeds of Mach 5, which is five times the speed of sound. It utilizes the Turbine-Based Combined Cycle (TBCC) engine, a combination of a supersonic turbojet engine and a scramjet, which is a supersonic combustion ramjet engine.
Thanks to this engine configuration, the Quarterhorse would excel at various speeds effortlessly. It can handle both the relatively low speeds of commercial airline travel today and the hypersonic speeds that would leave fighter jets far behind.
