The Boom Symphony is planned as a two-spool medium-bypass turbofan engine for use on Overture. The engine is intended to produce 35,000 pounds (160 kN) of thrust at takeoff, sustain Overture supercruise at Mach 1.7, and burn sustainable aviation fuel as an option.
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.
Powered by three J85-15 engines with variable geometry inlets and exhaust, the prototype should be able to sustain Mach 2.2 with more than 1,000 nmi (1,900 km; 1,200 mi) of range. [4] As a technology demonstrator for the Boom Overture, the XB-1's trijet configuration matched that of the Overture.
Boom, the startup building the next Concorde, conducted its latest flight test. The CEO says it's on track to fly supersonic by the end of the year.
The XB-1 serves as the design foundation for Boom’s future jet, a concept model called Overture. The company promises it will eventually carry 64 to 80 passengers at Mach 1.7, or roughly double ...
Tie also said engine manufacturers aren't investing in supersonic flight — hindering one of the industry's most vital components: power. A rendering of the Boom Overture supersonic airliner ...
It is to be powered by three 15,000–20,000 lbf (67–89 kN) dry turbofan engines. [6] In January 2021, Boom announced plans to begin Overture test flights in 2026 [22] and Boom CEO Blake Scholl "estimates that flights on Overture will be available in 2030." [23]
Once complete, "The Overture Superfactory" will employ approximately 1,750 workers by 2030 and produce the company’s upcoming Overture supersonic jet, which Boom hopes will start flying ...
