“I told you it’s pretty f*****g cool.” - Brandon Tseng, President and Co-Founder during the livestream.
 
On October 21, we proudly unveiled X-BAT, a groundbreaking, multirole strike jet poised to redefine the future of airpower. Policymakers, industry leaders, and key stakeholders joined us to hear firsthand how our world-class engineering team transformed an ambitious vision into reality. 
 
“X-BAT represents a revolution in airpower by presenting endless flexibility for our warfighters and endless dilemmas for our adversaries. X-BAT's design is about four things. First, vertical takeoff and landing. Second, multi-role capability. Third, being purpose-built around an AI pilot. Fourth, offering 10x lower life cycle cost compared to legacy 5th gen aircraft.” - Armor Harris, Senior Vice President of Aircraft Engineering.
 
Autonomy for the world. The greatest victory requires no war.
