Thanks for the linked document. The "suitable airframe" upon which to mount the Scimitar (once a couple of the other issues get resolved in further R & D) would need some significant safety factors applied to things like cabin pressurization and seals, for FL's where it looks to be during cruise at Mach 5. (FL~ 800? based on Table 2)
