The experience of model dual-modescramjet (DMSCRAM) creation and the main results of ground and pre ight tests are analyzed in this paper beginning from the conception choice, goals, and working program implemented for about 15 years, preceding to the rst ight test of hypersonic ight laboratory. Design schemes for plane and axisymmetrical engine concept are examined. The description of experimental test facilities, test instrumentation, and methods of readings treatment used in ground-test procedure of DMSCRAM are given. The test results of ground model engine at Mach-number range M = 3.5-6.5 and ground test-results for ight type engine at M = 5 were cited and con rmed the durability and readiness of developed DMSCRAM for ight tests.
