The Boom Symphony is a medium-bypass turbofan engine under development by Boom Technology for use on its Overture supersonic airliner. The engine is designed to produce 35,000 pounds (160 kN) of thrust at takeoff, sustain Overture supercruise at Mach 1.7, and burn sustainable aviation fuel exclusively.
The Boom Overture is a supersonic airliner under development by Boom Technology, designed to cruise at Mach 1.7 or 975 knots (1,806 km/h; 1,122 mph). It will accommodate 64 to 80 passengers, depending on the configuration, and have a range of 4,250 nautical miles (7,870 km; 4,890 mi). Boom Technology aims to introduce the Overture in 2029. [2]
