The closest thing to it that exists is the X-43A.

It is the replacement for the SR-71. A hypersonic plane with a ceiling of 200,000 feet. Mach 4 capable. Supposedly operational in 1995

called the Aurora, BTW.

It's a really shitty 3D render and composite.

Aurora actually flies...for CanFor. It's their name for the P-3 Orion maritime recon turboprop.

The image in question is of some notional SCRAMjet airbreather that might follow after the X-43 some day in the future.

History Channel said last night that the Aurora flies 2000 MPH

Is it one of those new dyson fly catchers?
