Exos Aerospace has informed Starfighters that the Air Force Test Center evaluated the white paper as technically acceptable. The Exos team is now completing the remaining onboarding requirements for Alliance participation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAdding Starfighters gives our team a high-speed airborne test capability that complements AEDC\u2019s world-class ground-test facilities,\u201d said John Quinn, Co-founder and CEO of Exos Aerospace. \u201cTheir operational F-104 fleet would let us offer the Air Force real-atmosphere flight data alongside the agency\u2019s modernized infrastructure.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Starfighters\u2019 F-104 aircraft can be configured to carry test articles and payloads through high-speed atmospheric flight conditions, supporting research, development, test and evaluation (RDT&amp;E) of aerospace and defense technologies. A typical 45-minute Starfighters mission can include up to approximately 10 minutes at Mach 2+.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cStarfighters brings a capability that is extremely difficult to replicate: an operational commercial F-104 fleet capable of sustained Mach 2+ flight in the real atmosphere,\u201d said Tim Franta, CEO of Starfighters Space. \u201cExos selected Starfighters to bring high-speed airborne flight testing to its team. Successful onboarding would create another pathway for us to pursue government missions where our aircraft, infrastructure and flight-test experience can provide meaningful value.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Starfighters previously demonstrated its airborne testing capability through GE Aerospace\u2019s Atmospheric Test of Launched Airbreathing System (\u201cATLAS\u201d) program, a separate effort funded under Defense Production Act Title III and unrelated to AEDC, in which a Starfighters F-104 completed three successful supersonic captive-carry flights from Kennedy Space Center carrying an advanced propulsion test vehicle. The Company is building on that experience through its Wind Tunnel in the Sky\u2122 platform, a reusable airborne capability for sustained real-atmosphere testing of advanced aerospace, defense and hypersonic technologies.<\/p>\n<p>Participation in the onboarding process does not constitute a contract award, task order or commitment of government funding. There can be no assurance that Exos Aerospace will complete onboarding, that the team will receive any future project award, or that Starfighters will generate revenue from the Velocity Alliance.
