Billionaire Paul Allenfounded in 2011 by Stratolaunch Tests continue with the world’s largest aircraft developed by the company.
Stratolaunch The world’s largest aircraft in terms of wingspan (117 meters), which has been studied for a long time by rock, It has been on our agenda many times before. For example, for the first time in the last three-hour flight test, 27 thousand ft (8,200 meters) height was reached. The company broke its own record with this height level reached. The aircraft is on the agenda once again today because another test was carried out with the vehicle.
Stratolaunch, hypersonic aircraft that will be launched into space under the world’s largest aircraft (Sample photo of TA-0 is in the gallery above) is developing. In the last flight test, the company, which carried out key tests for the infrastructure established for this, and took the hypersonic test vehicle to the sky, in the last flight test. 23 thousand ft He explained that he had ascended to an altitude of 7 thousand meters and the total flight time was over 5 hours.
The company obtains very important data with these tests and states that they will continue to work with the main aircraft on the TA-0.
