AIRO (NASDAQ:AIRO) announced at EAA AirVenture 2025 the development of a new middle-mile cargo drone and expansion into Quebec's YMX Innovation Zone through its Electric Air Mobility segment, Jaunt Air Mobility. The cargo drone is designed to carry 250-500 lbs over 200+ mile distances, featuring the company's patented Slowed-Rotor Compound (SRC) technology.

The aircraft combines vertical takeoff capabilities with fixed-wing cruise efficiency and includes advanced Command & Control features for beyond visual line-of-sight operations. The expansion into YMX Innovation Zone provides AIRO with access to testing facilities, regulatory support, and collaboration opportunities with partners like Vertiko Mobilité.

The initiative aims to accelerate the development and deployment of Advanced Air Mobility solutions, particularly focusing on serving remote communities through the CORRIDAIR Project.

AIRO (Nasdaq: AIRO) has announced plans to expand its U.S. manufacturing footprint with a new facility, building on the success of its RQ-35 ISR Drone program. The RQ-35 Heidrun has gained significant international recognition in defense and security sectors, particularly for its performance in harsh electronic warfare and GPS-denied environments.

The new AS9100-certified facility will focus on scaling production and developing next-generation autonomous mini drones. The expansion is driven by growing global demand, particularly from NATO countries, where the RQ-35 has accumulated hundreds of thousands of operational hours in active conflict zones.

The facility will serve as an innovation hub for developing efficient, reliable, and low-carbon-emission unmanned aircraft systems for both commercial and military markets.
