The supersonic aircraft startup parted ways with Rolls-Royce earlier this year.
"The team at FTT has a decades-long history of developing innovative, high-performance propulsion solutions," FTT president Stacey Rock said in the statement. "We are proud to team with Boom and its Symphony partners and look forward to developing the first bespoke engine for sustainable, economical supersonic flight."Boom's new in-development Symphony engine is a medium-bypass turbofan system that will produce net zero carbon and emit 35,000 pounds of takeoff thrust.
Now that the Symphony project is underway, Boom says its Overture aircraft will go into production in 2024, and it has a first test flight scheduled for 2027. The company is aiming to be flight certified by 2029. The supersonic aircraft company recently announced a redesign for Overture, which will see it carry fewer passengers to make it quieter and more efficient.Some experts have called those timelines into question, given the challenge of developing a new supersonic engine. Dr.
that Boom has an "interesting group of collaborators, but when you're basically starting from scratch on the engine, their current timeline seems ... challenging."
