Breaking barriers, making history, letting you fly as never before.

Aerion, in collaboration with Airbus Group, is well along in its efforts to inaugurate a renaissance of civil supersonic flight. The two companies are working jo...
See More intly on the advanced design phase of the AS2 supersonic business jet. The result will be the world’s fastest civil jet with a top speed of Mach 1.5, and a new definition of speed, capability, and panache.

Since its founding in 2002, Aerion has invested more than $100 million in R&D, much of it in conjunction with NASA and other prominent aerospace research organizations, to develop concepts for a family of efficient supersonic jets. Over that time, it has developed, flown, and proven supersonic natural laminar flow airfoils that reduce wing friction drag by as much as 80 percent, and overall airframe drag by as much as 20 percent.

These efforts have culminated in the Mach 1.5 AS2 business jet, capable of crossing the Atlantic or Pacific nearly twice as fast as today’s subsonic jets.
