Hermeus focuses on developing hypersonic aircraft capable of reaching speeds of Mach 5, which is over twice the speed of the Concorde. This means their aircraft can travel at approximately 3,800 miles per hour, significantly cutting down travel times. The aircraft operates using a hypersonic engine powered by the Pratt & Whitney F100 turbine, which has already undergone successful testing. Hermeus aims to sell these high-speed aircraft to airlines and government agencies interested in fast transportation. Unlike other aerospace companies, Hermeus is specifically targeting the hypersonic travel market, which sets it apart from competitors. The company's goal is to transform air travel by making it faster and more efficient.
