The Flicker is a delta-winged mixed-propulsion spaceplane with a tricycle undercarriage. It is carried to altitude by jettisonable Derwent V jet pods (4x) and then climbs to space using twin XLR11 rocket engines in the tail section. Designed by NathanKell for hypersonic, high-altitude, and low-suborbital research.

An improved model, the Flicker B, features cold gas RCS for attitude control when above 60 kilometers and at low dynamic pressure.
