The first official record of a manned supersonic flight was Charles Yeager flying the Bell X-1 on October 14, 1947. There is a "plausible" claim that George Welch actually beat Yeager by two weeks in an XP-86 Sabre, but that run was not officially monitored so it isn't considered "official."
The Tupolev Tu-144 was the first supersonic passenger jet.
Overdrive afterburners, and supersonic flight capability- It is, alas, obsolete.

Supersonic Transportation is commercial flight by means of a supersonic vehicle. The Concorde was probably the most famous super sonic jet in history and flew commercial flights across the Atlantic. Its final flight was on November 26, 2003. Currently, there are no Super Sonic Transportation services available to the public.

The Tupolev Tu-144 holds the title for the first supersonic passenger flight, ahead of the Concorde. However, the Tu-144 also holds the dubious distinction of being the first to end supersonic passenger service, lasting only 55 flights.
The F-100 Super Sabre is the first US massed produced jet fighter to reach Mach 1 in level flight reaching Mach 1.05 May 25, 1953. any plane could have reached Mach 1, but would have broken up.
A Scram jet is a jet which needs supersonic propulsion to take off. It is taken into air by another larger aircraft and is released in supersonic speed.
the flight of the first jet airplane was in Germany

There are many types of jet engines.Some of them are ordinary, supersonic and hypersonic.
