The AS2 will fly at a speed of Mach 1.5, using supersonic laminar flow technology, and the wing design will allow for lighter fuel consumption and increased travel ranges by reducing aerodynamic drag by 20%. The cabin is designed to accommodate up to 12 passengers.〔 NASA has issued a contract to model supersonic boom on ground.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Rockwell Collins to Develop Sonic Boom Display )〕 New noise regulations coming in 2020 caused Aerion to change design from 2 to 3 engines.〔.〕
==Orders==
In November 2015, Flexjet confirmed that they had placed a firm order valued at $2.4 billion for twenty Aerion AS2s, with delivery to begin in 2023.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Flexjet Order For 20 Supersonic Jets Boosts Aerion )〕 Flexjet CEO Kenn Ricci said the company would use the supersonic jet for overseas flights and also in China, which does not have restrictions on sonic booms. Ricci noted that, with the aircraft traveling at Mach 1.2, its boom would not reach the ground, possibly allowing regulators to permit supersonic flight over land. Flexjet, owned by Directional Aviation Capital, offers customers fractional ownership of aircraft, rather than outright purchase.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Flexjet orders 20 supersonic business jets from Aerion )〕
