Boom Supersonic announced its new “Boomless Cruise” technology, which will enable silent flights<\/strong> . This innovation allows supersonic flights<\/a><\/strong> without the characteristic sonic boom, opening up the possibility of high-speed flights over land without generating annoying noise. <\/p>\n\n

First silent supersonic flight<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n

On January 28, 2025, Boom’s XB-1 demonstrator aircraft<\/a><\/strong> made its first supersonic flight without producing any perceptible sonic booms on the ground<\/strong> . During this historic flight, the XB-1 broke the sound barrier three times<\/a><\/strong> , reaching a maximum speed of Mach 1.12. <\/p>\n\n

Specialized microphone arrays confirmed that the shock waves did not reach the ground, validating the company’s prediction models and improving its algorithms.<\/p>\n\n

The technology relies on the “Mach limit,” a physical phenomenon that allows the sonic boom to be refracted in the atmosphere and not reach the ground. This is achieved by flying at altitudes above 30,000 feet and adjusting speed based on atmospheric conditions. The Symphony propulsion system<\/a><\/strong> , designed specifically for the Overture, facilitates this type of silent flight<\/a><\/strong> . <\/p>\n\n
