    Will The Next Air Force One Go Supersonic? USAF Working With Boom

    Government Executive Flight Program Looks At Boom Overture Boom Supersonic has been awarded a contract by the Air Force under a program meant to help fund innovations with future Air Force applications. The contract will fund explorations of an Overture configuration designed for Air Force executive transport. The Department of Defense and the Air Force manage all air transport for executive branch top leadership, including Air Force One. "Supersonic flight brings people together, whether for work, family or global diplomacy," said Blake Scholl, Boom founder and CEO. "By cutting travel times we make it possible for U.S. diplomats and executive leaders to connect more frequently in person, meeting challenges and defusing potential crises with a personal touch. We're so proud to help envision a new way for the Air Force to provide transport for critical government activities." Overture reportedly offers the Air Force a unique combination of passenger capacity, speed, and enough space and power to accommodate the requirements of necessary mission systems. Plus, the aircraft can be configured for multiple cabin zones, affording a layout with as much privacy as necessary. Boom is designing Overture to comply with stringent FAA airworthiness and production regulations, and the aircraft will be fully adaptable to meet specific requirements for a variety of military end users. "The United States Air Force is constantly looking for technological opportunities to disrupt the balance of our adversaries," said Brigadier General Ryan Britton, Program Executive Officer for Presidential & Executive Airlift Directorate. "Boom is an example of the American ingenuity that drives the economy forward through technological advances. We are extremely excited to team with them as we work to shrink the world and transform the future of executive airlift." In addition to its potential for executive transport, Overture could be adapted to satisfy other Air Force and broader Department of Defense mission requirements. Overture could also become part of the Civil Reserve Air Fleet (CRAF), enabling humanitarian and other critical airlifts in half the time. http://www.aero-news.net/index.cfm?do=main.textpost&id=e8ac4591-8992-4942-9eb3-225c4567d283

    Dassault Aviation a signé, le 29 janvier, avec Florence Parly, ministre des Armées, un contrat pour la vente de 12 Rafale, lesquels remplaceront les 12 Rafale de l'armée de l'Air et de l'Espace française vendus à l'armée de l'Air grecque. La signature a eu lieu lors d'une visite de la ministre des Armées à l'usine d'Argonay, en Haute-Savoie, où sont produits les systèmes de commandes de vol de tous les avions Dassault depuis 1963. « Ce contrat de 12 avions neufs permet à notre armée de l'Air et de l'Espace de poursuivre sa montée en puissance Rafale en attendant la cinquième tranche, dont les livraisons sont prévues entre 2027 et 2030, a déclaré le PDG de Dassault Aviation et président du GIFAS, Eric Trappier. C'est une grande satisfaction pour Dassault Aviation, Thales, Safran et les 500 entreprises françaises associées au programme, dans le contexte particulièrement difficile que traverse notre secteur aéronautique avec la crise de la Covid-19 ».
