IT House on November 10th, Boom Supersonic, the United States Corroado, said that its XB-1 supersonic verification machine set a new speed record in the latest test flight on November 5.This is the seventh in the 10 submolar test flights in its plan. It aims to verify the performance and handling of the aircraft to ensure the safety of reaching supersonic flight in the future.
According to the IT home, during this 55-minute test flight, the XB-1 rose to about 7,015 meters, reaches the highest speed of 1,012 kilometers per hour, equivalent to 0.82 Mach , which marks the goal of XB-1 from Mach 1 Mach.
Boom Supersonic stated in the statement that the latest flight is mainly concentrated in the expansion of the tremor and cockpit pressure test to ensure the XB-1 Safety performance and handling at close and higher altitude.Since the first flight was completed on March 22 this year, the fastest flight speed of XB-1 was 0.69 Mach.
During the flight on November 5, the team performed a tremor incentive system (FES) under the 0.7, 0.75, and 0.8 MachThere will be no adverse interactions between the surrounding airflow and structure.In addition, the XB-1 also reached the highest height of history, and the team conducted a cockpress pressure test under the maximum pressure difference, preparing for the superstones at 30,000 feet (about 9,144 meters) in the future.
Boom Supersonic stated in the statement: "XB-1 continues to fly at a faster and faster speed and higher flight high, gradually expand flight packaging, for aircraft and teamsBreaking through the sound barrier "
XB-1s performance lays the foundation for the design and development of the companys flagship project OVERTURE. Overture is a planned supersonic passenger aircraft, which aims to be aimed at the purpose of the plan.Make aviation travel faster and more efficient.
