Nouns denoting man-made objects.
Examples
- The experimental aircraft's athodyd engine had to be launched from a high-speed rocket sled to function properly.
- Researchers had to find innovative ways to launch the athodyd-powered vehicle, as it required high speeds to ignite.
- Historically, athodyds were often used in ramjet-powered missiles that relied on the athodyd's ability to generate thrust only at high speeds.
- During World War II, scientists initially explored the athodyd as a potential propulsion system for high-speed rockets.
- Despite its limitations, the athodyd demonstrated promise as a simple yet effective jet engine for high-speed applications.
