Main Activity

Over the last 30 years, Tekna has developed an industry-leading position with a complete array of proven and reliable solutions using thermal plasma technology for the Defense and Aerospace OEMs as well as Universities and Research Centers around the world. 

Tekna owns and operates advanced manufacturing capability with more than 200 systems manufactured and fielded to date. Global Research and Development is composed of over 50 PhD and engineers who are experts in the fields of equipment design, numerical modeling, plasma, and materials science. 

Our state-of-the-art plasma wind tunnels can operate under a wide range of conditions with high repeatability and reliability to reproduce the conditions of an object at atmosphere reentry and/or traveling at hypersonic velocity. 

It is possible to accurately measure vital parameters on a vehicle’s body, such as ablation, stagnation pressure, heat flux, surface and inside temperature, plasma enthalpy, and gas velocity.

Main Activity

Reaction Engines is a privately held technology Company pioneering space access and sustainable technologies.  The Company is based in Culham, Oxfordshire, UK and Denver, Colorado, US and employs over 200 staff across its sites. For over 30 years we have been at the forefront of engineering innovation – including developing SABRE, a revolutionary new class of aerospace propulsion. SABRE enables us to go beyond the limits of flight both within and outside the atmosphere. Making space travel and high-speed flight more efficient, more accessible, more possible. 
Developed for SABRE, our proprietary precooler technology is truly transformational. It delivers world-leading heat transfer capabilities across diverse industries to improve performance in motorsport, convert waste heat into renewable electricity and support more sustainable aviation. These revolutionary thermal management solutions have the potential to elevate life on Earth. 
Building on the pioneering high-speed propulsion technologies and extensive research and development capabilities of our partners, we are leading the Hypersonic Air Vehicle Experimental (HVX) Programme. This programme will look to unlock innovative hypersonic technologies to establish revolutionary reusable hypersonic air systems.

Products and Services Offered

The need for aircraft thermal management and performance optimisation goes beyond the propulsion system. Leveraging the technologies developed for SABRE, we’re making important steps towards overall vehicle energy management.
Our SABRE and SABRE-derived fast jet technologies can transform space access, empower critical high-speed missions, enable high-speed transport and achieve breakthroughs in sustainable propulsion.
The majority of engine development testing for our air-breathing propulsion systems can be done on the ground. Crucially, this means we can prove technology with short timelines and at a reduced cost compared to flight testing. A central part of our ability to accelerate the future.
