X-59 QueSST de la NASA : Exxelia est à bord

Si le programme tient ses promesses, il pourrait permettre l’émergence d’avions de transport supersoniques capables de voler au-dessus des terres, sans les limitations imposées au Concorde en son temps. Pour ce projet, Exxelia produit principalement des bobines en provenance de nos sites USA. Nos composants sont à destination du moteur de l’avion.     Avec son nez allongé, ses ailes “bossues” et ses petites surfaces portantes dispersées, le X-59 ne ressemble à aucun autre avion. Une configuration exceptionnelle pour des capacités exceptionnelles. Crédits: NASA     Il volera à une vitesse de 1,5 Mach (1,5 fois la vitesse du son), soit plus de 1 800 kilomètres par heure. La NASA espère que son appareil pourra, à terme, être utilisé dans le domaine de l’aviation civile.   Si les essais sont concluants, le X-59 QueSST pourrait donc avoir deux effets révolutionnaires sur le paysage aéronautique américain, voire mondial : L’avion d’essai pourrait servir d’inspiration à de futurs avions de transport produits en série, qu’il s’agisse d’avions de ligne ou d’avions d’affaire. L’ensemble du projet LBFD pourrait permettre une évolution de la réglementation aérienne actuelle. Plutôt que d’interdire tous les vols supersoniques civils au-dessus des USA, comme c’est le cas aujourd’hui, la NASA propose d’instaurer une réglementation en fonction du niveau de bruit.   Source : Lockheed Martin, NASA
