The Boom XB-1 "Baby Boom" is a one-third-scale supersonic demonstrator, designed to maintain Mach 2.2, with over 1,000 nautical miles [nmi] (1,900 km; 1,200 mi) of range, and powered by three General Electric J85-15 engines with 4,300 pounds-force [lbf] (19 kN) of thrust. [14]
The Boom Overture is a proposed supersonic airliner under development by Boom Technology.Its design will be capable of traveling Mach 1.7 (1,000 kn; 1,800 km/h; 1,100 mph), with 64–80 passengers depending on configuration, and 4,250 nmi (7,870 km; 4,890 mi) of range.
The Boom XB-1 "Baby Boom" is a one-third-scale trijet supersonic demonstrator designed by Boom Technology (dba "Boom Supersonic" [2]) as part of development of the Boom Overture supersonic transport airliner.
Boom Supersonic, another faster-than-sound startup, has been forced to build its own engine after failing to make a deal with major engine manufacturers, who remain focused on conventional jet ...
Boom Supersonic’s XB-1 testing aircraft at the Mojava Air and Space Port in California. In aviation, the “flight envelope” refers to an aircraft’s operational limits. How fast can it ...
Boom Supersonic has partnered with Leonardo, Aernnova, and Aciturri to help build its highly anticipated Overture, it announced Tuesday.
Boom’s engine is called Symphony, and it’s designed in collaboration with Florida Turbine Technologies, whose engineers have worked on the supersonic engines of fighter jets such as the ...
The "boom" is experienced when there is a sudden change in pressure; therefore, an N-wave causes two booms – one when the initial pressure rise reaches an observer, and another when the pressure returns to normal. This leads to a distinctive "double boom" from a supersonic aircraft.
