Air Force (https://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/air-force/) One is already one of the fastest passenger planes in the world — but the Pentagon wants to make it a lot faster.


The U.S. Air Force recently awarded a contract to the aviation firm Exosonic (https://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/exosonic/) to begin developing a presidential aircraft that can travel at supersonic speeds...."


the Air Force’s Life Cycle Management Center said the contract is intended to “develop a low-boom supersonic executive transport aircraft that will allow key decision makers and teams to travel around the world in half the time it takes now!”
