The CJ-100 is supersonic in nearly all flight phases. [1] According to the International Institute for Strategic Studies in 2022, the missile has a range of 2,000 kilometres (1,200 mi; 1,100 nmi). [4]
United is the first US airline to place an order for the $200 million supersonic jets that can connect New York and Europe in less than four hours.
Rendering of an early design of the XB-1 demonstrator. The design was unveiled at Centennial Airport in Dove Valley, near Denver, Colorado, on November 15, 2016, [6] and it was initially intended to make its first subsonic flight in late 2017, powered by General Electric CJ610 (civilian version of GE's J85) turbojet engines, with subsequent supersonic flight test planned elsewhere.
Mk 2: Scheduled for 2025, Mk 2 will be powered by a precooled Pratt & Whitney F100 engine, enabling supersonic flight. Mk 3: In 2026, Mk 3 will incorporate Hermeus' Chimera II propulsion system, which includes a modified F100 engine. This version aims to achieve speeds faster than Mach 3.3.
Cruise missiles can be categorized by payload/warhead size, speed, range, and launch platform. Often variants of the same missile are produced for different launch platforms (for instance, air- and submarine-launched versions). Guidance systems can vary across missiles.
Scholl said Overture would replace that with an "augmented reality vision system" powered by two cameras on the landing gear, which has already been successfully demonstrated on Boom's XB-1 prototype.
Boom Supersonic CEO Blake Scholl said the Mach 1.7 Overture will keep the US aviation industry ahead of China in the commercial market. This startup is closer than ever to reviving the Concorde ...
The Silbervogel was the first design for a hypersonic weapon and was developed by German scientists in the 1930s, but was never constructed. [6]The ASALM (Advanced Strategic Air-Launched Missile) was a medium-range strategic missile program developed in the late 1970s for the United States Air Force; the missile's development reached the stage of propulsion-system testing, test-flown to Mach 5 ...
