Just curious but I wonder how the amplitude of a sonic boom from say a 200Kg A2A missile compares to the boom of a fighter. Any ideas anywhere? Is it not so loud that tests from fighters flying at subsonic speeds against subsonic targets can be conducted in areas where supersonic flight by fighters is banned due to sonic boom effects on houses etc?
