EN BREF ✈️ Le C949 de la COMAC vise à dépasser le Concorde avec une vitesse de 2100 km/h. 🔇 Son fuselage innovant permet de réduire significativement le bang sonique, rendant le vol plus silencieux. 🤖...

China’s state-owned aircraft manufacturer COMAC has unveiled bold plans for the C949, a next-generation supersonic passenger jet designed to revolutionize global travel. If realized, the C949 could cut traditional long-haul routes like London-New York and Shanghai-Los Angeles by half, and do so in remarkable silence and efficiency compared to historic supersonic icons like the Concorde. The Concorde, jointly developed and manufactured by Great Britain and France, operated from 1976 to 2003. It was renowned for its speed, flying at over twice the speed of sound and cutting transatlantic flights to about three and a half hours.

Chinese media reported that the C949 would have a 50 per cent range boost over the retired Concorde and fly with a noise level like a blowing hairdryer.
