Wow, that missile seems very promising. Ram jet engine in a A2A missile wow!

To whom it may concern,

I am an idiot, unfortunately for the world, I have a internet connection and a fondness for beer....apologies for that.

Thank you for you patience.

I wouldn't call it pointless if it was fired at me!! Maybe impossible...

It seems ram jet engine makes fog there.

I thought the ram jets don't kick on until later in the missile flight. I thought it was first normal missile propulsion and then switch to ram jets, it's that correct?

I'm not to well versed in what's on the drawing board, but the idea of having a constant-powered missile always seemed like a no-brainer from the time I first learned missiles rely on inertia for much of their flight. Is it only just now possible to have meaningful propulsion small enough to fit on a missile like this?

I searched but no detailed information there. Who knows maybe I'm wrong.

its right there in the article

 

The missile was rail-launched from the Gripen flying at 0.9 Mach and at an altitude of 18,000ft (5500m). Following the boost phase, the missile successfully transitioned to its ramjet operation and accelerated to its operational speed.

Look up the missiles the Kub complex uses... And the Kh-31/41, but ofcourse the key is here that it's solid fueled (like the Kub missile, kh-31 is liquid) and small.

I think I missed it somehow, thanks for heads up.
