Boom Supersonic's XB-1 pathfinder vehicle went out in style on Monday (Feb. 10), breaking the sound barrier three times on its 13th and final test flight.

If you've been keeping tabs on aviation news as of late, you saw that Boom Supersonic just recently broke the sound barrier with its XB-1 demonstrator aircraft. Oddly enough, no one on the ground heard a thing during its "boomless" cruise.

US aerospace firm Boom Supersonic is expecting to reach design freeze on the Overture supersonic passenger aircraft in about a week, as flight-testing of its experimental XB-1 jet concludes. The XB-1 departed on its 13th and final flight on 10 February,

According to the US company, the most recent and final test flight of XB-1 on February 10 also achieved supersonic speeds without making a boom. Boom Supersonic plans to apply the lessons learned from the XB-1 test flights to its future commercial airliner,

Boom XB-1 broke the sound barrier again at the end of the test campaign. The next step for Boom Supersonic is to develop a supersonic passenger aircraft.

Hot on the heels of its milestone supersonic flight with its demonstrator aircraft, XB-1, Boom Supersonic has another surprise up its sleeve. During the demonstration flight on January 28, 2025, the XB-1 broke the sound barrier three times,

The XB-1 test flight was a unique event that will live on in the history books and has given travelers hope of a return to supersonic travel.

Boom's recent test flight with the XB-1 aircraft achieved supersonic, with iPhone and Starlink capturing the iconic moments.

Independently developed jet makes new record, adding to its rigorous series of human-piloted test flights that will prepare its eventual successor, Overture.

Aerospace startup Boom says they've proven quiet supersonic flight is possible with their passenger airplanes after a successful second test flight.
