Do believe time line is optimistic.
Daily flights or twice a week available - don't think so.
Far less expensive SST flying buy this time - feasible.
Ticket price - beyond stratospheric.

Surely there has to be a way to cut a cigarette lighter in half lengthwise and glue it underneath  an obsolete credit card that has been trimmed to have about a 70 degree wing sweep  and hang it under some larger 1:48 kit.    The black shape is your hypersonic UAV  rapid on-site reconnaissance  machine.
