This startup hypersonic plane company raised over a hundred million from the Air Force and Raytheon

They plan commercial hypersonic flight in 2029, hypersonic cargo in 2025

Thoughts?

Will commercial hypersonic flights come back?

Their plane the Halcyon reminds me of the Normandy from Mass Effect

Sounds like raytheon is going to make hypersonic missiles

the Air Force and Raytheon aren't spending their own money, so they don't care about how much they waste. with that in mind, they have announced that "wonderful things will happen for you in the future if you let us take all your money right now" which is the same lie that they've just to justify endless waste and theft from government boondoggles in the past.

just the same as with concorde will happen. no one wants it to fly across their territory because of the noise, no airport wants to deal with complaints of it landing there, if its even an airport able to have it land there.

What? We never had commercial hypersonic flights. The fastest production aircraf was sr71, it was nowhere near hypersonic, it was difficult and expensive to fly, it could only be justified by the military use and it definitely is not coming back.

concorde failed because juan trippe was ousted from the presidency of pan am. the noise complaints were only justifiable in the context of concorde being a foreign project, trippe's loss of sway at pan am is what made concorde into a foreign project. trippe had ordered concorde in order to prove that there was a domestic us market for ssts, which in turn justified the boeing 2707 project, when trippe was kicked out of pan am that ended ssts.
in the half century since, air transportation has not advanced at all, the 747, also built at trippe's orders is still pretty much the peak of technology.
like so many other thinks, progress came to a screeching halt in about 1971 or so.

Funny you say that, they are, actually. Testing of pic-related late this year and FAA approval for legality of commercial flights over the speed of sound by 2028

That is just the top speed of the second testing prototype (first being Spike), future planes will be much faster than this. We have never had commercial hypersonic transports, OP simply mispoke
