Hypersonic Technology Demonstrator Vehicle (HSTDV) is developed by Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) and is based on hypersonic propulsion technologies,This Vehicle was designed to test the vehicle performance of a scramjet engine. The vehicle also was intended to test the associated technologies such as aerodynamic design and aero-thermal design, materials, and hot structures at those insane speeds. The HSTDV has an air-breathing scramjet engine which means that it uses atmospheric Oxygen for propulsion.
