What role will F-15 jets play in the future of supersonic flight?

NASA’s experimental X-59 has finally traded the hangar for the sky, marking a historic first flight that could rewrite the rules for how fast passenger jets move over land. The ultra-quiet research aircraft is designed to slice through the sound barrier while turning the traditional sonic boom into a far softer thump,

Space agency doubles the jet fighter research fleet for its X-59 quiet supersonic flight program.

NASA is working on an experimental piloted aircraft designed to fly faster than sound, all without producing the annoying, if not sometimes alarming, sonic booms.

NASA has received two F-15 jets which had been retired by the US Air Force in order to advance its supersonic research program

NASA pilot David “Nils” Larson outlines X-59 early flight tests, design features, risk management, and planned research phases based on NASA’s Small Steps, Giant Leaps podcast.

Two F-15Ds of the Oregon Air National Guard have been transferred to NASA's Armstrong Flight Research Center, where they will join the ones already operated by the agency. NASA has announced on Jan. 15,

Initial ground trials of a hybrid-electric engine demonstrator support NASA's Hybrid Thermally Efficient Core (HyTEC) project.

NASA Armstrong adds two retired F-15 jets to support supersonic research for the X-59, enabling high-altitude flights and experimental data collection.

Come early next year American space agency NASA will fly, for the first time, an experimental aircraft that could one day bring back civilian supersonic aircraft, and might even allow them to fly at speeds above that of sound over populated areas.

Boeing and NASA will pause work on a new, experimental aircraft design meant to deliver more sustainable options for the future of aviation. The aircraft project — called the X-66A Sustainable Flight Demonstrator — featured long, thin wings that would ...

From experimental rocket planes to Cold War spy jets, the fastest aircraft in history pushed far beyond what engineers once thought possible. I focus here on ten record-setters whose top speeds, measured in Mach numbers and thousands of kilometers per hour,
