Bombardier Global 8000
SERPENT’s “Shadow Wing” is a turbo‑charged Bombardier Global 8000 that feels like a luxury jet, a flying fortress, and a covert headquarters rolled into one. It’s the fastest civil jet since Concorde, cruising at Mach 0.92 and topping out at Mach 0.94, with an 8,000‑nautical‑mile range that lets SERPENT go anywhere.
