The Moscow Aviation Institute (MAI) presented the developed configuration of a supersonic passenger aircraft at the ICASSE 2025 conference in Singapore.
Using the developed method, MAI conducted studies of the design characteristics of a basic aircraft model with a capacity of 48 passengers.
According to calculations, such an aircraft will be able to cover up to 12 thousand km, while having an optimal take-off weight of 45-50 tons.
Its flight can take place at an altitude of up to 22.5 kilometers and at a speed three times the speed of sound. Thanks to innovative materials in the airframe structure — modern steels and titanium — it is possible to achieve the lightest possible weight of the aircraft for such a speed.
Earlier www1.ru reported that the aviation pump for MC-21, SJ-100 and Tu-214 became 17% lighter.
