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. What sets Hermeus apart from competitors is its specific focus on hypersonic travel and its recent achievement in engine testing, which demonstrates its progress in this advanced field. The company's goal is to transform high-speed travel and make it a viable option for commercial use.

Pre-Orders Growing For The Xb-1 As It Breaches Sound Barrier In Latest Test

Supersonic RebirthSince the beginning of air travel, the industry has always looked at ways to move more people quicker and/or cheaper. When supersonic flight was invented shortly after World War II, it was expected to progressively take over the industry, at least for long-distance flights, where the extra speed converted into a much superior user experience.It, however, did not turn out this way. While supersonic airplanes are very important in the military, civilian flights are still, to this day, mostly subsonic, taking more than half a day for intercontinental flights.This was due to a combination of factors, from excessive costs to the difficulty of dealing with sonic booms above populated areas. As a result, the last civilian supersonic flight was in 2003.And it might change, as a new company, the aptly named Boom Supersonic , just achieved its first supersonic flight in a test flight. And the orders for the supersonic plane are already piling up before even being commercialized.Supersonic FlyingThe term supersonic means that an object moves quicker than the speed of sound. This results in a phenomenon where the plane flies quicker than the noise it is generating
