The aviation industry is witnessing a resurgence of interest in supersonic travel. From Boom Supersonic to the rollout of ...

NASA’s X-59 aircraft completed its first flight over the Southern California desert, bringing us closer to traveling at the speed of sound without the explosive, thunder-like clap that comes with it.

A new "quiet" supersonic X-59 jet designed to revolutionize air travel successfully completed its first test flight, Lockheed Martin announced this week. The sleek, needle-point aircraft built for ...

NASA's X-59 Quiet SuperSonic Technology (QueSST) experimental supersonic aircraft took to the skies for the first time on October 28, 2025 from Lockheed Martin's famously secret Skunk Works at the US ...

Lockheed Martin announced in a press release the successful completion of an initial test flight for the X-59, a new supersonic airplane designed to cut down on noise concerns for faster commercial ...

Lockheed Martin's experimental supersonic plane has officially entered production, the defense giant announced Friday. Earlier this year, NASA awarded Lockheed a contract worth nearly $250 million to ...

Born out of Cold War desperation, the XF-84H Thunderscreech was a radical experiment in aircraft propulsion. Aiming to combine the climb rate of a propeller plane with the speed of a jet, engineers ...

NASA and Lockheed Martin’s X-59 "quiet" supersonic plane flew for the first time in October. It’s a major step towards reintroducing commercial supersonic flight in the United States. When you ...

Boom Supersonic is putting its engine technology to work on the ground to power the AI boom, and help fund development of its ...

When a passenger aircraft crosses Mach 1, it's moving faster than sound. That shift creates shock waves around the airframe. Drag increases sharply, engines must burn far more fuel, and the familiar ...

The Thunderscreech was an experimental American turboprop plane created to as an experimental variant of the the F-84 Thunderstreak fighter jet. Development began after the Navy issued a requirement ...
