MightyFly wins USAF contract


MightyFly has been selected by AFWERX, the innovation arm of the USA’s department of the air force, for a SBIR phase II contract worth USD 1.25 million. It focuses on the company’s autonomous load mastering system (alms), to allow its autonomous hybrid eVTOL cargo aircraft to load, unload and deliver cargo autonomously and to address the most pressing expedited logistics challenges.

 

MightyFly’s alms is expected to provide automation, efficiencies and cost savings to businesses and governments.

 

In September the company also welcomed Tim Draper to its group of investors, through Draper Associates. MightyFly is scheduled to complete the manufacturing of its third generation MF100 aircraft later this year and publicly debut its delivery-flight demonstrations with a 45 kg payload in Michigan in 2024.
