The Boeing Sonic Cruiser was a concept airliner with a delta wing-canard configuration. It was distinguished from conventional jet airliners by its delta wing and high-subsonic cruising speed of up to Mach 0.98. Boeing first proposed it in 2001, but airlines generally preferred lower operating costs over higher speed. Boeing ended the Sonic Cruiser project in December 2002 and shifted to the slower (Mach 0.85), but more fuel-efficient 7E7 (later named 787 Dreamliner) airliner.

Det var skiljer sig från konventionella jet trafikflygplan av dess deltavinge och hög-jetmotordrivna marschfart på upp till Mach 0,98. Boeing först föreslogs det 2001, men flygbolagen föredrar generellt lägre driftskostnader över högre hastighet. Boeing avslutades projektet Sonic Cruiser i December 2002 och skiftat till den långsammare (Mach 0,85), men mer bränslesnåla 7E7 (senare namnet 787 Dreamliner) trafikflygplan.
