Supersonic Green Machine

This future aircraft design concept for supersonic flight over land
comes from the team led by the Lockheed Martin Corporation.

The team's simulation shows possibility for achieving overland flight
by dramatically lowering the level of sonic booms through the use of
an "inverted-V" engine-under wing configuration. Other revolutionary
technologies help achieve range, payload and environmental goals.

This supersonic cruise concept is among the designs presented in April
2010 to the NASA Aeronautics Research Mission Directorate for its NASA
Research Announcement-funded studies into advanced aircraft that could
enter service in the 2030-2035 timeframe.

Might just work...

Looks like a cross between a squid and a shopping cart - neither of
which have I ever heard make a sonic boom.
