Spike Aerospace is excited to reintroduce supersonic flight — quieter, cleaner, safer and more efficient.
Imagine reaching destinations across the country or around the globe in half the time.
This is how we will do business, travel and enjoy life. This will change the world!
In a digital world with texts, emails and televideo calls, do we still need to fly? Absolutely!
We need to visit friends, family and colleagues on distant shores and experience the world’s cultures, food and people first hand. To feel the mist of the Victoria Falls, ski the French Alps, sail the fjords or take a camel trek, you have to be there, in person.
So, while digital is great for routine communications, you cannot experience life on a smartphone — or solve humanitarian crisis, mitigate global conflicts, open a new office, hire senior executives or acquire a billion dollar asset. For those, you need to be on the ground, face-to-face.
Spike Aerospace believes that experiencing the world personally, in real life, builds global understanding, tolerance, compassion and peace.
Aviation & Climate Change
Aviation produces 2.5% of the Green House Gases (GHG) that are contributing to climate change. But even this is too much and needs to be addressed with innovative engine technology, optimized aircraft designs, regulations and changes to flight operations. The industry is on a fast track to battery powered, hydrogen fueled and synthetic fueled aircraft that will offer aviation with net-zero (or better) carbon emissions. Over the next decade, advances in technology and aviation will enable us to explore the world without damaging it — even at supersonic speeds.
A few years ago, Ideas Abu Dhabi welcomed some of the brightest and most interesting minds from the UAE and around the world to discuss four of the most important moonshot challenges facing our planet. The event was inspired by the world-famous Aspen Ideas Festival that has been taking place in Colorado since 2005, as a place for scientists, artists, politicians, business leaders, historians and educators to discuss some of the most fascinating ideas of our time.

Vik “Max” Kachoria, President & CEO of Spike Aerospace, spoke about his vision for sustainable supersonic flight and the value that flying faster than sound offers.

Supersonic flight across continents requires faster-than-sound aircraft to be designed to be low or no boom. Otherwise, everyone on the ground would hear the extremely loud thunderclaps that the Concorde generated wherever it flew. It simply isn’t acceptable to disturb communities and the environment just to get somewhere faster.
The Spike Diplomat Supersonic Jet is specifically designed to be extremely low-boom by minimizing the noise signature to a soft thump — it is as close to no boom as physics allows. You will be able to zip across the ocean or across the United States, Europe, Asia or the Middle East in 1/2 the time with barely a peep.
On the Spike Diplomat Supersonic Jet, you’ll travel in luxury with a stunning panoramic view of the world around you. The small cabin windows have been replaced with our revolutionary Multiplex Digital Screens which provide full-length, high definition displays for an incredible flying experience. By insulating the fuselage walls from the outside engine and wind noise, the entire cabin also offers a much quieter and more comfortable experience.
You’ll build and maintain better relationships, explore new ventures, and stay in touch with the people who matter most.
Spike Aerospace in the News
Spike Aerospace is led by seasoned executives with decades of management, finance, engineering, sales, partnership and supply chain experience at world-class aerospace and aviation companies. Our team has brought dozens of complex aircraft and spacecraft programs from concept to market. We have the expertise to bring the Spike Supersonic Jet to market.
Some people have all the time in the world to smell the roses — for them, a slow plane is just fine.
But if your time is precious, supersonic flights help you get things done, see more and relax more.
