EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken at the 1955 Paris Airshow Le Bourget in France, showcases the impressive Sud-Est Se-161 Languedoc 96 mothership with a Leduc 0.21 ramjet No. 02 parked on its wing. The Sud-Est Se-161 Languedoc was a French transport aircraft, known for its versatility and durability. It was designed to carry passengers, cargo, and even military equipment. In this instance, it served as a mothership for the Leduc 0.21 ramjet, a ground-breaking piece of aviation technology. The Leduc 0.21 ramjet was an experimental engine, designed to provide supersonic flight capabilities to aircraft. Ramjets function differently than traditional jet engines, as they rely on the compression of air to generate thrust instead of combustion. This innovative engine was carried aloft by the Se-161 Languedoc for testing and evaluation. The Paris Airshow Le Bourget was the perfect venue for this groundbreaking display. The annual event, which began in 1909, is one of the oldest and most prestigious aviation exhibitions in the world. It provided a platform for manufacturers, engineers, and innovators to showcase their latest creations and advancements in aeronautical technology. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, when the possibilities of aviation seemed limitless. The collaboration between the Sud-Est Se-161 Languedoc and the Leduc 0.21 ramjet represented the cutting edge of technology and innovation, paving the way for future advancements in aircraft design and engine development.
