Boom Supersonic, a US-based aviation start-up, unveiled the full-scale demonstrator of its first supersonic jet - the XB-1. The prototype will test-fly next year and is set to be expanded into a full-fledged aircraft that could break the sound barrier, reaching up to Mach 1.3, with up to 44 passengers on board. It will be the first supersonic passenger jet since the Concorde.
