This Defense Intelligence Reference Document from the Defense Intelligence Agency, dated 21 November 2010, was produced in FY 2010 under the Advanced Aerospace Weapons System Applications (AAWSA) Program. It reviews propulsion concepts that use plasmas and magnetohydrodynamics. It finds the Ajax MHD energy bypass concept meaningless below Mach 12 but calls a reverse energy bypass with a Virtual Cowl potentially practical. It also predicts that electric propulsion will become standard for spacecraft.
