1,000m/h supersonic car model revealed

A MODEL of a supersonic car that aims to be the first ever to break the 1,000mph (1,600km/h) speed barrier on land was revealed yesterday.

After three years of painstaking aerodynamic work, the model of the SuperSonic Car went on display at the Farnborough Air Show.

The car uses a Eurofighter-Typhoon jet engine combined with a Falcon hybrid rocket to produce 133,000bhp.
