About

Boom Supersonic is an aerospace company developing supersonic commercial airliners, reviving a capability lost when the Concorde retired in 2003. Founded in 2014, the company is working to make supersonic flight faster, safer, and more sustainable than its predecessor era.

The company's flagship product is the Overture supersonic airliner, supported by its proprietary Symphony engine technology. Boom's XB-1 demonstrator program has built the technical foundation for the Overture programme. The company's work spans supersonic aircraft design, engine technology, and aerospace engineering.

Boom has secured orders and pre-orders from major airlines including United Airlines, American Airlines, and Japan Airlines. The company states its mission is to make the world "dramatically more accessible" through supersonic flight, with an emphasis on sustainability and broader passenger accessibility.
