A history of the evolution of airbreathing propulsion, with emphasis on the development of supersonic combustion ramjet (scramjet) engines, is presented. The current status of scramjet engines is discussed and deficiencies in fundamental and applied data and/or knowledge, which comprise opportunities for future work, are noted.
