China Sets World Record with 700 km/h Electromagnetic Propulsion Flatcar
DEFENSE
Chinese engineers have set a world record by accelerating a multi-ton electromagnetic propulsion flatcar to 700 km/h in just two seconds on a 400-meter test track. Developed over a decade at the Defense Science and Technology University, this technology has potential applications in vacuum transport systems and could transform high-speed travel and aerospace equipment testing. Experts believe it may serve as a blueprint for future hyperloop systems.
