Rosen develops cabin management for supersonic AS2

The AS2's cabin will combine craftsmanship with cutting-edge technologies. Aerion is asking Rosen to create an immersive cabin environment that delivers previously unseen levels of passenger-technology interface.

Rosen Aviation has been selected to develop a new Cabin Management & Technology System (CMTS) for what could be the world's first supersonic business jet, the Aerion AS2.

Rosen Aviation join Aerion's growing team of technical partners, as progress on the AS2's development gathers pace ahead of manufacturing commencing in 2023 at Aerion Park in Melbourne, Florida. Rosen Aviation has specialised in cabin electronics for nearly 40 years. The Eugene, Oregon based technology supplier will develop the CMTS system, software sophistication and cabin experience for the 8-10 passenger, private jet.

“We are beyond thrilled to partner with a company, like Aerion, that is poised to revolutionize the business jet market,” says Lee Clark, Senior VP Strategy at Rosen Aviation. “From the very beginning, it was clear that our two organisations shared many core values, and, most importantly, a vision for the future.”

“Our drive at Aerion is to make AS2 an icon in aviation history – a leap into the future of speed and global connectivity, while also setting a new standard for luxury,” says Tim Fagan, Aerion's Head of Industrial Design & Cabin Experience. “The AS2's cabin will combine traditional craftsmanship with cutting-edge technologies and will emphasize the truly unique character of this supersonic aircraft. We look forward to collaborating with Rosen to create a truly immersive and intuitive cabin environment that delivers previously unseen levels of passenger-technology interface.”
