Can hypersonic aircraft fly faster than bullets?
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).
Can any aircraft or airplane go hypersonic?
It is not possible till now for a aircraft/airplane to go hypersonic since the thrust produced by the aircraft is supported by the air present around it. However, the engine maker Rolls Royce is experimenting a new way to bring the speed of airplanes closer to the speed of sound.

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.

When was Hypersonic XLC created?
Hypersonic XLC was created in 2001.
What is the duration of Hypersonic XLC?
The duration of Hypersonic XLC is 16.0 seconds.
What is supersonic and hypersonic?
Supersonic and hypersonic are speeds. Supersonic means faster than the speed of sound, and hypersonic means very much faster.
What is the duration of Hypersonic Flight Experiment?
The duration of Hypersonic Flight Experiment is 120.0 seconds.
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
