Boeing Model 733 SST

 Subject
Subject Source: Nasm
Scope Note: Aircraft - refers to Boeing's original, internal designation for the SST, dating back to 1958. When Boeing was named a finalist (along with Lockheed) to build the American SST, Boeing changed "Model 733" to the more-salable "Model 2707," which was the only designation for the SST that Boeing ever released to the public. This term should only be used for early SST material.
