With Shaurya, it makes more sense that the 2nd stage with the sustaining motor continues the hypersonic flight
while thats where things stand, in future can the RV have a scram jet engine and part of the payload weight is actually fuel for it?
Is there a possibility of Agni benefiting from this (new propellant grain type) in terms of augmenting its range further? or the lift power during boost phase is expensive versus the sustaining power needed using the wing surfaces at a high altitude with in the atmosphere?
