A large number of novel aeropropulsion system concepts are presented for subsonic through hypersonic applications offering large potential improvements. Collectively, these examples illustrate the revolutionary opportunities and challenges that could enable truly revolutionary aircraft capabilities in the future. Certainly not all of these concepts will ultimately prove fruitful. Nevertheless, the sheer number of existing concepts, including many unmentioned herein, is so large and the applications so vast, that the prognosis for the future of aeropropulsion is very encouraging indeed.
