I tried to figure out the appropriate topic to post this, but it crossed over a couple topics.
I found this interesting Martin factory model from the estate of a Martin engineer located in Denver CO. The base is meant for a SV-5 model, but it fit. I picked up 5 other models, all were Martin...

EADS has a design for a Zero Emission Hypersonic Transportation (Zehst) rocketplane.
Of course there's an animation too:

The sum total of my knowledge on this craft comes from this single illustration, found in the Boeing Historical Archives. It’s a 1965 drawing of a rocket/scramjet vehicle that made use of a few X-15 bits and pieces. Clearly it was designed to test high-speed airbreathign systems ina stepwise...
I'm a big fan of the works of Rudolf & Robert Das, two well known futurologists from Holland. These twin brothers have published various books in the past twenty or so years, depicting the future of transportation, energy, housing etc. Instead of doing this with elaborate texts, they use...
Seems to be Rockwell International's very own HALO study. Interesting how vehicle shape would be close to factual RI X-30 NASP proposal.

I've seen the Reaction Engines Ltd Skylon spaceplane mentioned a few times already but I think it deserves it's own thread.
It looks cool and will only cost £10 billion(ish) to develop, so if it wasn't designed in Great Britain 'the land of lost opportunties' it would probably get built ;)
