NASA Begins Work to Build a Quieter Supersonic Jet
NASA has begun the preliminary design of a “low boom” supersonic flight demonstration aircraft, as part of its renewed ‘X-planes’ program, under the 'New Aviation Horizons' initiative, introduced in the agency’s Fiscal Year 2017 budget. Design-and-build will take several years with aircraft starting their flight campaign around 2020, depending on funding.
