Lockheed L-2000 is the design of supersonic aircraft Lockheed Corporation in a competition funded by the government to build the first supersonic transport the United States' (SST) in 1960. L-2000 lost a contract with Boeing in 2707, but the design of both competing and ultimately canceled due to political reasons, environmental and economic.
In 1961, President John F. Kennedy is committed to subsidize 75% of the development of commercial aircraft to compete with the Concorde. Director of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Najeeb Halaby, was selected to improve the design of the Concorde than competing head-to-head with Boeing in 2707. SST, which may have represented a significant advance over the Concorde, the aircraft is intended to carry 250 passengers (in large quantities at the time), flying at Mach 2.7 to 3.0, and has a range of 4,000 nm (7400 km).
This program was launched on June 5, 1963, and the FAA estimates that in 1990 there will be a market for 500 SSTs. Boeing, Lockheed and North America to respond formally. North American design was soon rejected, but Boeing and Lockheed design was chosen for further study.
