Lockheed Skunkworks is working on a high beat nuclear fusion reactor that they think they can get a full scale prototype up in 5 years and a commercial system in 10 years
A 100MW compact fusion reactor that runs on plentiful and cheap deuterium and tritium (isotopes of hydrogen).
Instead of the large tokomaks which will take until the mid-2040s or 2050s for the first one and which will be large (30,000 tons) and expensive have one that fit on a truck. Build on a production line like jet engines.
