This test is a part of ISRO's next gen "two stage to orbit" (TSTO) launch vehicle. First stage of TSTO will have delta wings and scramjet engine for landing. Second stage will have parachutes for landing[0]. The winged body that was tested two months ago will be the first stage of TSTO. In this experiment, ISRO tested aerodynamics and flight control systems of this delta-winged body at hypersonic speeds. In the next experiment (scheduled on July), ISRO will be testing the scramjet engine. [0] http://i.imgur.com/p2CUxE1.png http://i.imgur.com/p2CUxE1.png
