The Concorde’s variable-geometry nose fairing and retractable visor were unique design features, introduced to give pilots comparable forward vision to conventional airliners during takeoff and landing. With the development over recent decades of high-fidelity multispectral imagery systems, such as those designed for the NASA X-59 low-boom demonstrator, it is unlikely that similar "droop snoop’"configurations will be required on next-generation commercial supersonic aircraft.
