DESCRIPTION:E. T. Curran\, Scramjet Engines: The First Forty Years\, "Jour
 nal of Propulsion and Power 17\, 1138 (2001)":http://www.aiaa.org/content.
 cfm?pageid=406&gTable=japaperimport&gID=5875\n\nA general review of the em
 ergence and maturing of supersonic combustion ramjet (scramjet) engine tec
 hnologies over the last 40 years is presented. The review is given in term
 s of the efforts completed or proceeding in the United States\, Russia\, F
 rance\, Germany\, Japan\, Australia\, and other countries. A brief account
  of the challenges of scramjet combustor development is given\, and attent
 ion is directed toward other source references for more detailed accounts 
 of technology evolution. Two emerging scramjet applications are identi  ed
 \, namely\, hydrogen-fueled high-speed engines for access to space and hyd
 rocarbon-fueled engines for hypersonic air-launched missiles.
