USAF Issues Contracts for Supersonic Air Force One
Exosonic and Hermeus have been awarded contracts for faster-than-the-speed-of-sound aircraft by the USAF Presidential and Executive Directorate.
Exosonic and Hermeus have recently won USAF Presidential and Executive Airlift Directorate contracts to develop supersonic and hypersonic aircraft, respectively, as potential transports for the President and other top U.S. leaders. Hermeus is working on this Mach 5, 20-passenger aircraft that could shorten the trip from New York to London to 90 minutes. (Photo: Hermeus)
