NASA’s “Quiet Concorde” to be tested at supersonic speeds for the first time, could cut New York–London flight time to four hours

The aircraft will be capable of reaching speeds of up to 1,960 km/h (1,218 mph), that is Mach 1.6

NASA set to break sound barrier for first time without loud sonic boom

“That first supersonic flight was such a tremendous achievement, and now you look at how far we’ve come since then”
