In fact, supersonic business jet work was carried out in 1991 in partnership with American Gulfstream and Russian Sukhoi companies. The project called S:21 was canceled because it could not receive orders. In 1998, French business jet manufacturer Dassault launched a supersonic jet project. The biggest problem in the project was the engine. All manufactured supersonic engines were designed for military jets. The main obstacle of military engines is the need for frequent maintenance and excessive fuel consumption.

Its cabin was designed by BMW. It carries 4 and maximum 5 passengers. Eclipse 500 is one of the preferred personal jets among private planes. It is a silent twin-engine jet. Eclipse 500, the world’s first twin-engine light business jet , has a 2011 factory price of 2,800,000 Turkish Liras. It is operational and economical (it consumes 40 percent less fuel than its counterparts).
SHORT WINGS;Opposite Lockheed Martin are Boeing and Raytheon. Both companies have significant strength and experience in the aviation industry, both in passenger aircraft and business jets.

1953 F-100 Super Saber The F-100 was the first mass-produced supersonic fighter jet.
1964 SR-71 Blackbird The fastest aircraft ever produced, the SR-71, was used for reconnaissance purposes.
1976 Concorde The British-French jointly manufactured Concorde passenger plane entered service.
1992 Sukhoi-Gulfstream S-21 Russian-American project ended because orders could not be received.
1998 Dassault Falcon SST The project was canceled because an engine with sufficient performance could not be found.
As of 2012, the price of the jet is 120 million Turkish Liras. The planes have 12 seats. The supersonic aircraft debate came to the agenda again with two projects at the 2012 NBAA Fair. On one side there is Lockheed Martin. Lockheed, which made its name with military aircraft as well as projects such as the SR-71, which flies three times faster than sound, and the F-117, which cannot be detected by radar, wants to get a share of the market with the project called SSBJ. The aircraft has an inverted ‘V’ shaped tail structure.
The need for supersonic business jets is between 250-300 aircraft by 2022. The biggest customers are companies that provide shared aircraft services such as NetJet
7,400 Km. The development cost of supersonic business jets is 3 billion dollars.
