Supposed X-37B uses TUFROC (=Toughened Unipiece Fibrous Oxidation Resistant Ceramic), but is that for the leading edges or the underside generally ? - Rod57 ( talk) 12:16, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
It states that the vehicle is "120% of the X-40". Meanwhile, the X-40 page says that it is a "80% scale model of the X-37"
While both of these statements may be technically true, in combination, they form a loop.
Should this be fixed? 174.93.14.130 ( talk) 20:29, 3 August 2022 (UTC)
The line "It was reported to weigh 48,000 lb (21.6 t), and be 29 feet (8.8 m) long" in the paragraph about the Chinese reusable spaceplane comes from a source which is clearly describing a different spacecraft entirely, a manned capsule as opposed to an unmanned spaceplane. I'd also appreciate some clarification about just which 'knowledgeable commentators' are arguing that the X-37 inspired the nebulously-described Chinese project. 64.50.95.2 ( talk) 18:44, 10 April 2023 (UTC)

The photo caption says "The sixth X-37B". Presumably this is in prep for the sixth launch, which I guess would make it vehicle #1 (?) Someone who knows should clarify. Odd that these things don't have some more formal designation besides just 1 and 2. Gjxj ( talk) 18:18, 9 December 2023 (UTC)
Is there an explanation somewhere that explains why the engine to not centered but shifted toward the starboard side? Daleshell ( talk) 15:15, 14 March 2024 (UTC)
