Last-mile. Battery-electric.
AIRLOOP AEROSPACE
Cargo shouldn't have to follow the roads.
So we're building the network that doesn't.
Electric aircraft, autonomous hubs and flight intelligence — designed as one system. What takes an hour on the ground takes minutes in the air.
PROTOTYPE IN FABRICATION · FLIGHT TEST CAMPAIGN TO FOLLOW
SCROLL TO BEGIN
01 · THE PROBLEM
The ground is full.
Congestion is worsening almost everywhere: 62% of the world's urban areas saw delays rise in 2025. In the US alone that cost $85.8 billion in lost time.SOURCE · INRIX 2025
The corridor below runs straight across the water. By road at rush hour it is close to an hour. In the air it is a fraction of that — the distance stops being the problem.MODEL
It's not a distance problem. It's an access problem.
02 · THE HUB
For AirLoop, no airport needed.
A hub the size of a small building — not an airfield.
CARGO IN → ROBOT LOAD → BATTERY SWAP
↓ PETALS OPEN
LAUNCH · TURNAROUND 4–6 MINTARGET
Aircraft + autonomous hub = a working network.
03 · THE AIRCRAFT
Not a drone. An aircraft.
A blended-wing body with the propulsion inside it. Duct, rotor and airframe shaped as one — that's where quiet and efficiency actually come from.
15 kg · 25–30 km · 150–200 km/h · 120–150 mTARGET
The airframe is currently in fabrication, with a staged flight-test campaign to follow.TARGET
04 · CLIMB
The road goes around. We go across.
Below, vans trace the shoreline and queue for the bridge. Up here, the corridor is a straight line across the water.

05 · WEATHER INTELLIGENCE
Bad weather doesn't cancel the flight. It changes the route.

ROUTE A → WIND LAYER DETECTED → REPLAN → ROUTE B
You just watched it change route and altitude. The value isn't an energy percentage — it's flying the hours others cancel.TARGET
06 · AUTONOMOUS DECISION
Every decision it makes can be replayed and explained.
INPUTS · wind · rain · battery SOC · terrain · traffic · restricted zones · mission priority
↓ MISSION EVALUATION
ALTITUDE −35 M · ROUTE +2.4 KM · SPEED −8%
↓ MISSION CONTINUES
Decisions happen onboard — the aircraft doesn't ask the internet what to do. And every flight trains the next one.
07 · TRAFFIC
Separation is a decision, not a hope.
DETECT → TRAFFIC CONFLICT · HELICOPTER
PREDICT → PREDICTED INTERSECTION · 41 SEC
REPLAN → OPTION A — CLIMB · OPTION B — DESCEND · OPTION C — REROUTE ◄ SELECTED
CONFLICT CLEARED · MISSION CONTINUES
A helicopter crosses ahead and it reroutes on its own. Nobody is on a joystick.
Traffic awareness and centralized tracking are now mandatory under the Turkish framework.SOURCE · SHGMTARGET
08 · ARRIVAL · MISSION COMPLETE
Everything moves eventually. These move first.
Down, unload, battery swap, ready. Every category moves in time — it starts where waiting is most expensive:
HEALTHCAREBlood, samples, urgent pharma — hospital to hospital, where an hour changes the outcome.
INDUSTRIALCritical spare parts and maintenance components, where a stopped line costs by the hour.
MARITIMEPort-to-vessel and vessel-to-port — documents, parts, medical supplies across water no van can cross.
PREMIUM ENTERPRISEHigh-value small cargo, where speed is part of the product.
09 · THE LANDSCAPE
Between last-mile drones and regional freighters, the middle is empty.
PAYLOAD CLASS · WHO OPERATES THERE TODAY
1–5 KG
10–15 KG
Middle-mile. Battery-electric.
45–350 KG
Regional. Hybrid propulsion.
Vans are tied to the road. Helicopters burn fuel. Freighters need runways. AirLoop needs none of it — vertical, autonomous, road-independent, and 100% battery-electric: zero tailpipe emissions in flight.TARGET
Above 45 kg the field turns hybrid. Hybrids fly further. They can't land on a rooftop. Cities are the market.

- UAV corridors defined — explicitly for BVLOS logistics and autonomous delivery
- AI-driven autonomous systems enter regulation for the first time
- Centralized UAV traffic management (İHATTYS) + mandatory Remote ID
- Flight-software certification required — our mission computer is on that path
The demand is proven, the money is forecast, and the rules now exist. What is missing is the network.
12 · THE NETWORK
One aircraft is a vehicle. A network of aircraft and hubs is a utility.
The corridor you just flew multiplies. Value scales as aircraft × hub density × corridor utilization, and every flight adds operational data no one else holds.
Built for dense cities — the same system, any skyline.
