The compact megawatt-class electric engines can use to raise aircraft into the air. And also in long-distance flights, those kinds of engines can use to rotate propellers or use blowers. That makes an aircraft electric use. Electric aircraft are more independent than regular aircraft because they can load their batteries from radio waves. And that thing gives them theoretically unlimited operational range. The megawatt-electric engines can use in large-size drones like Boeing Condor.
The ability to transfer energy wirelessly to airborne systems allows the creation of quadcopters with unlimited operational range. That kind of system can be the ultimate recon and strike tool. Also, large-size quadcopters can use to raise aircraft from the ground. Then that system can fly them to the area there is no noise pollution problem. Or the aircraft can have a blower system that gives it low-noise VTOL (Vertical Take-Off and Landing) ability.
When aircraft flies over a city area, it can use electric engines. And then outside the city area, it can start to use regular jet engines. Or into new plasma-jet engines. Plasma-jet engines allow using the nuclear reactors in aircraft. And that kind of system can make "Project Pluto 2" possible. In that system, the nuclear reactor gives electricity to plasma-jet engines., And that removes radioactive pollution from that system.
The fact is that the aircraft also can use plasma-ion or plasma-jet engines. In those engines, the electric arcs or laser rays heat air in the engine to plasma, and the expansion of the air acts like combustion. The magnetic accelerators can pull that plasma backward. And that kinds of systems can make it possible to create miniature aircraft that can fly at least supersonic speed. There is the possibility that this kind of system can use in extremely small aerial vehicles.

The plasma-ion engine allows creating the next-generation ramjet-propelled ammunition. If an artillery cartridge gets energy from outside and uses a plasma-jet engine that grenade could make an intercontinental journey. Plasma-pulsejet engine is the miniaturized version of the pulse engine, that was used in the V-1 flying bombs. The system can replace the combustion by using plasma.
In a plasma-pulsejet engine, the system will pump air into the chamber. Then it will close the front hatch and start to expand the air in the chamber by using electric arcs or some kind of radiation. When that pressure is high enough, the system opens the back hatch. And the plasma that travels backward causes thrust.
The plasma-jet or small-size plasma pulsejet or ramjet engines also can install in the rifle- or small-size cannon ammunition, and those things can theoretically make it possible to create a sniper rifle that can shoot targets from another continent.
