The Declasse Scramjet is a custom weaponized vehicle featured in Grand Theft Auto Online as part of the After Hours update, released on August 21st, 2018, during the Scramjet Week event.
Design
Grand Theft Auto Online
The Scramjet takes cues from the popular 1960s Anime series Speed Racer and the lead car, the Mach 5. The front and rear fenders resemble those found on the Alfa Romeo 33/2 Coupé Speciale.
The Scramjet is distinctive by its rounded and sleek profile, featuring a trident-like front end, where the edges on either side houses the headlights. The wheel arches appears to be wider than the greenhouse area and have a concave shape for the wheels. Two small fins can be seen directly behind the seats, over the rounded portions of the rear section. The rear end has a similar curved profile to the front end, where the outer concave portions house the tail lights and the edges on either side houses the rocket boosters.
The vehicle comes with two machine guns and four rocket launchers, which are located on the concave portions of the front end, next to the headlights.

Performance
Grand Theft Auto Online
- Vehicle
The Scramjet's aerodynamic design allows for good acceleration and top speed, but tends to not turn effectively at medium or high speeds.
The Scramjet has 5 Advanced Flags activated[1], including the 4 flags introduced in the Southern San Andreas Super Sport Series update, with only the first three having known purposes. They are as follows:
- The first causes up-shifting to occur much sooner, and at lower engine revolutions, effectively shortening shift rates.
- The second causes the vehicle's engine to heavily over-rev and remain at the engine red-line for a much longer period of time before shifting, causing revolutions to fluctuate.
- The third increases the vehicle's suspension "springiness", causing it to bounce excessively while driving.
Armor
- The Scramjet's occupants, due to the open cabin, is extremely vulnerble against gunfire. Also, it does not have much ressistance against collisions, as such even at full armor upgrades it will still smoke after quite a few crashes. Any single explosive will destroy it instantly, with Heavy Sniper MKII taking 2 rounds instead of 1.
- Abilities
- The Scramjet has a power hop that provides the same effectiveness like the Ruiner 2000. This helps the car in avoiding obstacles such as concrete barriers and roadblocks.
- Unlike the Ruiner 2000, it does not have a recharge meter indicating the jump ability's avaliability. It will only recharge while on ground.
- The Scramjet features a rocket booster that is more effective than other similar vehicles, propelling the vehicle for two seconds and half, but takes four seconds to recharge. It only recharges while the vehicle is on the ground.
- Weaponry
- Two standard machine guns that have moderate firepower against enemies and unarmored vehicles. These are in a fixed position and therefore, aiming is a bit difficult.
- Rocket launchers on either side that provides heavy firepower against armored vehicles. Its tracking capabilities are good, although still surpassed by the ones from the Ruiner 2000. The launchers appear to have slightly decreased fire rate, taking 1.5 seconds to fire the next one, compared to most vehicles with rocket launchers, which takes a second flat to fire the next rocket.
- All weaponry on the Scramjet were pre-installed. Therefore, they cannot be removed, similar to the Stromberg.
- In addition to all the above, Scramjet allows the driver and the Passenger to use normal drive-by weapons.

Trivia
General
- The name of the vehicle is derived from the Scramjet ("supersonic combustion ramjet"), a variant of a ramjet airbreathing jet engine in which combustion takes place in supersonic airflow.
- The manufacturer choice appears to reflect the real prototype Mach 5 with functioning saw blades, which was built on a 2001 Chevrolet Corvette chassis (with Declasse being the GTA iteration of Chevrolet).
- The Scramjet's ability to jump like the Ruiner 2000, is a reference to the Mach 5's "Auto Jacks" from the Speed Racer anime.
- Additionally, the Scramjet’s rocket engines are possibly a reference to the Mach 4 from the 2008 Speed Racer movie, which sported a single jet engine with an afterburner.
- The default radio stations for the Scramjet are FlyLo FM, Los Santos Underground Radio and Soulwax FM.
- Attempting to modify the Scramjet with the MOC/Avenger in freemode is troubblesome, as the vehicle will not enter the MOC/Avenger's workshop when one pushes E. Instead it will activate it's power hop, and one must quickly enter the workshop before it recharges.
- This can be effectively solved if one is in the Bunker/Facility/Arena Workshop as the Ability is unusable while in an interior.
- The Scramjet is banned in Heists due to it's boost and jump capabilities.
