Gunning the jet motors, he sent the big cargo ship arrowing forward at supersonic velocity.
The massive plane flew at supersonic speeds and was equipped with jet lifters for vertical take-off or hovering.
He is as prodigious, and as much a man apart, as the wizard who has mastered supersonic speeds.
Many officers who have had a late blooming as experts in the field of electronics and supersonic speeds had lived out successful careers before these subjects first saw daylight.
This is the great phenomenon of war--greater than the atomic bomb or supersonic flight.
We've got plenty of electronic parts, and tubes big enough to put 60 or 70 kilowatts of supersonic energy in a beam.
It would be only a matter of hours to assemble one of them, and that would power any supersonic projector they might choose to build.
I don't think we'll give up the chemical research, but a group of you can begin work on this supersonic approach tomorrow.
Well, I've been wondering about supersonic methods.
Within a week, they had determined there was indeed a broad range of supersonic frequencies capable of precipitating the dust.
At its center, and at intervals about the bowl, there projected a series of supersonic generating units, spaced for proper phasing with one another in beaming a concentrated wave of supersonic energy skyward.
Ken and his companions had worked day and night on the rough construction, while the scientists had designed and built the critical supersonic generating equipment.
When the scramjets powered in, the infrared-homing AAM lost its lock on them and detonated the other missile, sending a supersonic shock wave through Daedalus.
The strut temperature in the scramjets, where a supersonic shock wave was providing the compression to combust hydrogen and the rush of thin air, had stabilized at 3,100 degrees Fahrenheit.
But would the supersonic shock wave inside the engines fire it?
Until the operational shakedown, nobody actually knew whether or not those damned scramjets would produce a standing shock wave in their combustion chamber, creating a supersonic "compressor" the way the supercomputer promised they would.
The laser data show that thesupersonic wave drag peaks at Mach 3.
I think we've finally eliminated the supersonic wave drag.
The vehicle was as ready as it was going to be: all the wind tunnel tests, all the computer simulations, even the supersonic test flights--everything said go.
One of those could easily bring down an unarmed behemoth like the Daedalus as long as it was still in the supersonic mode, which it would have to be at that low altitude.
Only one problem remained: a hint of supersonic wave drag the low- temperature helium wind tunnel had shown could develop behind the leading edges.
The above list will hopefully give you a few useful examples demonstrating the appropriate usage of "supersonic" in a variety of sentences. We hope that you will now be able to make sentences using this word. Other words: acoustic; acoustical; phonic; swift
