The US conducted another test of a supersonic aircraft for civil aviation

The US conducted another test of a supersonic aircraft, which in the future may take a worthy place in commercial flights.

This is told&nbsp ;”voice of America”.

The American start-up Boom Supersonic conducted the first successful test flight of its experimental XB-1 demonstrator (in a scale of 1 to 3) in March of this year, now – the next stage. It is, in fact, a prototype of the future Overture commercial aircraft (“Overture”), which could become the world's first private supersonic civilian aircraft. of the short surge in popularity of the Tu-144 in the USSR (1975-1978) and the Concorde in France (1975-2000).

It was brilliant technology at the time, but extremely expensive to operate and maintain. Accordingly, the tickets were expensive. And after the accident of the Soviet TU, which managed to make only 55 flights and, for more than ten years, the “Concorde” – with human casualties – the planes were written off and firmly forgotten.

But the high speeds of the modern world are returning the interest of engineers to hypersonic liners.

The United States has significantly stepped up efforts to revive supersonic civil aviation in recent years. Since 2016, the American private company Boom Supersonic has been engaged in this.

The American startup Boom Supersonic conducted the first successful test flight of its XB-1 experimental demonstrator (on a scale of 1 to 3) in March this year, now – the next stage. This is, in fact, a prototype of the future Overture commercial aircraft (“Overture”), which may become the world's first private supersonic civilian aircraft.

The aircraft being tested is designed for 65 passengers. The distance from Tokyo to San Francisco is expected to be covered in six hours in the future, and from New York to London across the ocean in three and a half hours.

Flights across the Atlantic from the USA in three and a half hours &ndash ; this is the goal of the American aerospace startup, which has conducted another successful test of the new liner. The Boom Supersonic company predicts that the first test flight of the Overture will take place by 2030, and 2029 is also mentioned in a number of publications. The creators promise that the speeds will be high, and the ticket prices – moderate.
