A propulsion system and an aircraft that includes the propulsion system are provided. The propulsion system includes an engine and a cowling that surrounds at least a portion of the engine. The propulsion system also includes an inlet. The inlet includes a compression surface that is upstream and external to the cowling. The compression surface can slow air flow from a supersonic speed to a subsonic speed before the air flow enters the cowling.
