A scramjet engine for powering an aircraft at supersonic velocities is disclosed. The scramjet engine includes supersonic compressed airflow in a combustor along with a fuel for providing combustion. A monopropellant is also supplied adjacent to the airflow and fuel. The monopropellant is effective for expanding in the combustor for mixing the airflow and the fuel for the combustion of the airflow and fuel for generating combustion gases. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the monopropellant is hydrazine and is effective for obtaining a specific volumetric increase of about 20,000:1.
