Aircraft
The Aircraft division designs, builds, and flies Shield AI's uncrewed aircraft. V-BAT is an ISR aircraft with an operational record from Ukraine to the Indo-Pacific, flown by U.S. and allied forces. X-BAT is an AI-piloted fighter that takes off and lands without a runway, in build now for first flight this year. The work runs from clean-sheet airframe and propulsion design in San Diego to production and flight test in Dallas-Frisco.
