If that's the case, it means that, the passenger version ia many years in the future, a decade or more. Why not just take the Concorde specs and work from there?

With the success of the test, I read that it is laying the foundations for the commercialisation of Overture, Boom’s production aircraft that will carry 64-80 passengers at Mach 1.7 (1,304 mph). A typical airline travels 547–575 mph. Overture will be able to fly from New York to London in half the time—3-1/2 hours.
