The SO.9000 Trident
research aircraft first flew in 1953
and employed a wingtip powerplant configuration first
tried on the SO.6020 Espadon.
The wingtip motors were
supplemented by a fuselage
mounted rocket engine, and in this form the aircraft
achieved a speed in excess of Mach 1.5.
A refined version named
the SO.9050 Trident II was
capable of Mach 2.0 and set an altitude record of over
79,000 ft in 1958.
The program was cancelled
shortly afterwards in favour
of the Dassault Mirage.
