A week long meeting of representatives of the hypersonic community from the U.S., Europe, and Japan was held at Sophia-Antipolis, France, from 25-29 January 1993. A tutorial for young professionals was held on Monday and Tuesday. It was well attended and well financed. Presentations made during that portion of the program dealing with the European Hypersonic Data Base (EHDB) clearly indicated that the Europeans are committed to developing the technology bane for hypersonic vehicles. I believe these activities will bring the European community into approximate parity with the U.S. technology capabilities. Even more impressive was the program being pursued by the Japanese. The program combines Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), ground-based testing, and flight testing. Furthermore, a close relationship between the hypersonic researchers and Fujitsu should enhance the ability to develop machines that become part of the tech base itself. This well-integrated program should allow the Japanese to make great strides during this decade.
