Hardware-in-the-Loop Simulation test

●WIRES#013, WIRES#015

We are developing subscale winged rocket, WIRES#013 and WIRES#015 for the purpose of flight demonstration of advanced technology necessary for the development of sub orbital space planes such as navigation guidance control, composite aircraft structure and LNG engine under the system of industry, government, and academia.

WIRES # 013 is planned for flight demonstration in the Mojave Desert, California, USA in the winter of 2020 and WIRES # 015 in the winter of 2021.
