The Overture should have lower fuel burn than Concorde by relying on dry (no afterburner) engines, composite structures, and improved technology since Concorde's development, although until Overture flies, Concorde remains the only Mach 2.0 supercruising aircraft in history and carried 30% more passengers than Boom is currently projecting.
Boom Supersonic wants to bring Mach 1.7 air travel to the masses by the 2030s. Its ambitions are huge – but how achieveable are they? ... Overture will still be short of Concorde’s 100, on ...
The XB-1 Baby Boom is 68 feet (21 m) long with a 17 ft (5.2 m) wingspan and a 13,500-pound (6,100 kg) maximum take-off weight. Powered by three J85-15 engines with variable geometry inlets and exhaust, the prototype should be able to sustain Mach 2.2 with more than 1,000 nmi (1,900 km; 1,200 mi) of range. [ 4 ]

The Boom Symphony is a medium-bypass turbofan engine under development by Boom Technology for use on its Overture supersonic airliner. The engine is designed to produce 35,000 pounds (160 kN) of thrust at takeoff, sustain Overture supercruise at Mach 1.7, and burn sustainable aviation fuel exclusively.
Concorde's costs spiralled during development to more than six times the original projections, arriving at a unit cost of £23 million in 1977 (equivalent to £180.49 million in 2023). [37] Its sonic boom made travelling supersonically over land impossible without causing complaints from citizens. [38]
