Abstract: Abstract Hypersonic vehicle has important scientific research value and application prospect. The aerodynamic layout structure to cope with the complex flow characteristics in the high-speed environment is the core factor affecting the performance of hypersonic vehicles. Until now, the design and development process of hypersonic vehicles still faces great challenges. At present, the commonly used aerodynamic layout structures include lift body, wave multiplier and so on. Among them, the Waverider body aerodynamic layout has a higher lift and lift-to-drag ratio, which is also a development direction for future hypersonic vehicles. This paper reviews the research progress of various countries in the field of hypersonic vehicles, analyzes and summarizes the main characteristics of different aerodynamic layout vehicles, and looks forward to the future development direction of hypersonic vehicles in military and civil fields. The future development direction of hypersonic vehicles in civil field is prospected.
