Falcon VTOL is a completely new aircraft design, next generation technologies, and capabilities never seen before. As seen here, anything released publicly are early iterations to get a good look and feel for the aircraft type publicly. But rest assured, every single aspect of this aircraft, the technologies, physics, and systems are already developed.

The first production Discovery Sport has rolled off Land Rover's production line in Halewood, UK. The car will now make its way to Virgin Galactic's headquarters, to be used by the team as they continue to prepare for the launch of the world's first commercial spaceline.

 

The Discovery Sport undergoes a rigorous test and development programme, covering 750,000 miles and over 11,000 tests.

New iteration for Raven SSTO, Single Stage to Orbit. This isn't the heavy, Discovery. But the smaller one. For example, SpaceX's dragon capsule is 378 Cu Ft, Payload bay of Raven is 1078 Cu Ft. www.ioaircraft.com/hypersonic/raven.php

 

Iteration 10, almost clean sheet. U-TBCC propulsion, 6000F thermal resistance, 3D printed graphene airframe, Note the elimination of "blunt nose". Turn around time under 24 hours total from landing to ready for next flight. No external boosters.

 

Forward Thruster Bay, other then conventional orbital thrusters, also includes a reverse thruster which decelerates the aircraft pre re-entry into atmosphere from 16,500+ mph ground speed to apx 12,000 mph ground speed. Engines re-ignite once in atmosphere so it can fly to it's landing destination, ie not glide.

Virgin Atlantic Airways - Boeing 747-41R - G-VWOW (c/n 32745/1287) - Cosmic Girl

 

UPDATE (December 2015) "Cosmic Girl" was withdrawn from Virgin Atlantic operation in October 2015. She is slated to become Virgin Galactic's "LauncherOne" air-launched satellite lifter after modifications are made to strengthen the vestigial structure of the inboard left wing formerly intended to ferry a spare "fifth" engine to now hold a 55,000-lb. rocket.

 

UPDATE (January 2017) - On November 12, 2015 this aircraft was re-registered by Virgin Galactic as N744VG.

 

UPDATE (November 2017) - On March 2, 2017, Richard Branson announced the splitting of LauncherOne operations from Virgin Galactic to a new entity, Virgin Orbit.
