Rocket-powered sled sets record at 1560 m.p.h. at Mojave Desert in California

The video tutorial covers a record-breaking sled run in the Mojave Desert, testing a radome from a jet interceptor. The sled, powered by rockets, reaches speeds over twice the speed of sound. Artificial rain is used to study its impact on the radome. The sled's motion is monitored using telemetering equipment, and the test concludes with the sled being halted by a water trough. The effects of supersonic rain on metal are analyzed by Air Force experts.
