Benefits

Skyways designs, builds, and operates fully autonomous long-range cargo aircraft.
Founded in 2017, the company has spent the last eight years developing and deploying autonomous logistics systems for real-world operations.
Our V2 aircraft carries 30 lbs up to 500 miles, while our next-generation V3 carries 100 lbs over 1,000+ miles with 20+ hours of endurance.
Both use a hybrid-electric architecture that takes off like a helicopter and cruises like a plane, enabling long-range autonomous delivery without traditional runway infrastructure.
Today, Skyways aircraft operate across three continents in controlled national airspace under FAA oversight and in support of U.S. military operations.
We are transitioning from prototype development to full-rate production and scaling toward large autonomous cargo fleets.
Air Force, Skyways is creating a new form of transportation to advance our civilization from Austin, Texas.
