Q. Which organization conducted the ground test of the Scramjet Engine in India?
Answer: Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO)
Notes: Recently, the Defence Research and Development Laboratory (DRDL), under the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO), successfully conducted a ground test of a Scramjet Engine for over 1,000 seconds in Hyderabad. A Scramjet (Supersonic Combustion Ramjet) is an air-breathing engine designed to operate efficiently at hypersonic speeds, Mach 5 and above. Unlike traditional jet engines, Scramjets do not use rotating compressors; instead, they rely on the vehicle's high speed to compress air. Scramjets enable supersonic combustion, making them ideal for Hypersonic Cruise Missiles (HCMs).
