The rocket plane deployed when the B-52 reached 500 mph and the X-15 burned its engines for 80-120 seconds, propelling the craft to extremely high speeds and altitudes. The X-15 holds the unofficial records for both speed and altitude: 4,520 mph (Mach 6.7) and 354,200 feet. Specifications: Crew: 1 Engine: Thiokol XLR-99 throttleable rocket

2014年9月5日 · The North American X-15 rocket-powered aircraft is widely regarded as the world's first spaceplane. While not technically a true spacecraft, it set several speed and altitude records at the Dryden Flight Research Centre in California in the 1960s and skimmed the very edge of outer space.

2022年8月8日 · The North American X-15 is a hypersonic rocket-powered aircraft. It was operated by the United States Air Force and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration as part of the X-plane series of experimental aircraft.

Build a record-breaking rocket plane The X-15 is a rocket-powered aircraft operated by NASA and the US Air Force between 1959 and 1968. It set records in both altitude (67.1 mi or 108.0 km, therefore officially space) and speed (Mach 6.70).

The X-15’s official world record for the highest speed ever recorded by a manned, powered aircraft, set in October 1967 when William J. Knight flew Mach 6.70 at 102,100 feet (31,120 m), a speed of 4,520 miles per hour (7,274 km/h; 2,021 m/s), has remained unbroken as of 2019.

Active from 1959-1968, this was the world's first space plane, capable of reaching speeds of Mach 6.72 and altitude's of 354,200 feet (high enough to be considered outer space). The data collected...

The X-15 was a hypersonic rocket-powered aircraft designed and built by North American Aviation, powered by Reaction Motors engines and operated by NASA and the USAF.
