Sonic booms shake Edwards AFB during the 2022 Aerospace Valley Airshow and STEM Expo! This is the only airshow in North America to feature real sonic booms. Each day, a US Air Force F22 Raptor opened the show with a sonic boom at altitude, then later in the afternoon a NASA F15 Eagle and F18 Hornet performed booms of their own.

The F18 performed a "low boom" profile which is designed to greatly reduce the impact of the boom on observers below. This is a precursor to the X59 QueSST which will pioneer research in 'quiet boom' techniques with the goal of making supersonic travel commonplace.
