Rocket plane - rocket plane

Japanese: ロケット機 - ロケットき
Rocket plane - rocket plane
A rocket-powered aircraft. It does not require air and has the advantage of being able to generate extremely large thrust with a small, lightweight engine, making it possible to fly at high speeds and altitudes that are impossible with jet aircraft. However, it consumes a huge amount of fuel and powered flight is limited to short periods of time, so in recent years it is only used for special research and experimental aircraft. Germany used the Messerschmitt Me163B interceptor in World War II.

Japanese:
ロケットを動力とする飛行機。空気を必要とせず,小型軽量の機関できわめて大きい推力を出せる特長があり,ジェット機では不可能な高速度・高高度飛行が可能。しかし燃料消費が莫大で,動力飛行は短時間に限られるため,近年では特殊な研究実験機にしか使用されない。第2次大戦でドイツがメッサーシュミットMe163B迎撃機を実用している。
