China's hypersonic aircraft would fly from Beijing to New York in two hours

Reminder that anytime hypersonic aircraft are proposed, it’s absolute nonsense (based on where current research, particularly in materials science, is at) and just a bunch of a CAD animations.

Ronald Reagan already topped this anyway by proposing in his 1986 State of the Union a modern-day “Orient Express” that would go New York to Tokyo in 1.5 hours. That never happened either.
