XTI Aircraft Partners With Verdego Aero

Will Cooperate On Hybrid-Electric VTOL Trifan 200 Cargo/Logistics Aircraft

VerdeGo Aero and XTI Aircraft Company have partnered together on the TriFan 200 program. XTI Aircraft is developing the TriFan 200, a configuration similar to its larger TriFan 600 VTOL passenger aircraft already under development. VerdeGo Aero is applying its diesel (Jet-A) hybrid powertrain to enable the TriFan 200 to offer operators favorable operating economics. When the program reaches commercial development and certification, XTI’s TriFan 200 Vertical Takeoff and Landing (VTOL) aircraft will be an unmanned autonomous aircraft capable of transporting 500 lbs of cargo on missions of more than 200 nautical miles.
