Bullets flies at the top speed of Mach 3 but almost Mach 4. There are some planes that can fly much faster than bullets but bullets used to fly faster than most planes(aircraft). Hypersonic aircraft can fly up to Mach 9. So yes, hypersonic aircraft can fly much faster than bullets. If these hypersonic planes can fly faster than bullets, they can fly alot faster than missiles. Missiles also flies around Mach 3 but hypersonic planes don't fly at that kind of speed. The top speed that hypersonic planes is nearly Mach 10(almost 10 times faster than the speed of sound).

What is the antonym of subsonic?
You could use "hypersonic." It is not a precise synonym, as subsonic is below the threshhold of hearing, whereas hypersonic would be above it. Supersonic would refer to velocity faster than the speed of sound, whereas subsonic also refers to velocities slower than those of the speed of sound. Sonic velocities are a consideration in jet aircraft design and with bullets and marksmanship. Subsonic rifle bullets tend to be more accurate than hypersonic ones
Some aircraft can fly faster than the speed of sound what is such speed called?
They are called Supersonic aircraft. Some aircraft can only do that. Some planes have reached even Hypersonic speeds.
What is supersonic and hypersonic?
Supersonic and hypersonic are speeds. Supersonic means faster than the speed of sound, and hypersonic means very much faster.
Speed which is more than five times faster than the speed of soundbetween 3820-7640 mph Mach 5?
hypersonic hypersonic
Which is faster a plane or bullet?
It strictly depends on which two specific items you are comparing. Bullets travel various speeds, as do airplanes. Some bullets are faster than some planes, and some planes are faster than some bullets.
What is the difference between hypersonic supersonic planes?
A supersonic plane is one that is flying faster than the speed of sound, or Mach 1. A hypersonic plane flies at a speed of Mach 5, so is much faster than a supersonic plane. Mach numbers are used for speeds greater than the speed of sound.
Who flew the aircraft that went faster than the speed of sound?
Captain Charles Yeager, flew the aircraft that was faster than sound.
Is bmibaby faster than BMI?
They both have different aircraft, however because they are different airlines it doesn't mean one is faster than the other. However in terms of their aircraft, Bmi have larger aircraft and they are faster.
What is super sonic aircraft?
Super sonic aircraft is aircraft that flies faster than the speed of sound.
When an aircraft attacks a place and firing a lot of bullet?
When an aircraft attacks a place and fires a lot of bullets it would generally be an attack aircraft rather than a fighter.
What travels faster than a sound?
Supersonic aircraft.
Does any aircraft travel faster than light?
No. Faster than light travel is impossible in any case.
