Reducing Noise and Emissions at Supersonic Speeds

Reducing Noise and Emissions at Supersonic Speeds | Spike Aerospace Supersonic aircraft are returning in an era of far stricter environmental regulation which require reducing supersonic noise and emissions.

Supersonic travel has fascinated the aviation industry and public imagination for decades. The Concorde proved that high-speed air travel was technically possible — but its limitations in noise, cost, and environmental impact ultimately made it commercially unsustainable. Today, new advances in materials, propulsion, aerodynamics, and regulation are creating a renewed opportunity for supersonic flight. But building a faster aircraft alone won’t be enough....
