Starfighters Space, Inc. operates a commercial aerospace business built around modified F-104 supersonic aircraft and development of the STARLAUNCH air-launch platform. Company news commonly covers flight-test capability, airborne aerodynamic testing, hypersonic test services, microgravity mission support, spaceflight and pilot training, and launch-support activities from Kennedy Space Center.
Recurring updates include STARLAUNCH 1 and Wind Tunnel in the Sky program development, technical work with aerospace partners, participation in space manufacturing and research initiatives, and operational leadership appointments tied to mission execution. Releases also address annual reporting, capital-structure disclosures, and operating and financial results.
Starfighters Space (NYSE American: FJET) will ring The Opening Bell® at the New York Stock Exchange on February 20, 2026, marking a corporate milestone and public recognition of the company’s operational progress.
Starfighters highlighted recent technical achievements, including supersonic flight testing supporting GE Aerospace’s ATLAS propulsion program and wind tunnel validation for its STARLAUNCH 1 air-launch vehicle with confirmed clean separation.
Starfighters (NYSE: FJET) completed a wind tunnel test campaign validating clean separation of the STARLAUNCH 1 vehicle from its aircraft at both subsonic (Mach 0.85) and supersonic (Mach 1.3) conditions. Ten successful runs at the FAMU/FSU polysonic tunnel showed strong agreement between CFD predictions and experimental forces and moments, with no adverse aerodynamic interactions observed. The results reduce technical risk and support procurement of instrumented drop test articles for flight separation evaluation. STARLAUNCH 1 is a sub-orbital vehicle for short-duration microgravity missions and the validated separation work also supports Starfighters’ broader aerospace and hypersonic testing services.
Starfighters Space (NYSE American: FJET) completed a supersonic flight test campaign supporting GE Aerospace’s ATLAS program, conducting three successful supersonic captive carry flights from Kennedy Space Center.
The flights carried an advanced propulsion test vehicle to speeds greater than MACH 2, validating Starfighters’ underwing test-payload capability and positioning its F-104 fleet as a commercially available supersonic flight-test platform for aerospace and defense customers. The ATLAS program is funded under DoD Title III, and Starfighters expects completed campaigns to support follow-on contracts and expanded mission scope.
Starfighters Space (NYSE American: FJET) provided a year-end corporate update after its 2025 public listing, highlighting operational progress supporting high-speed, high-altitude testing and its role across space, defense, and advanced aerospace missions.
Key points: completed a public listing in 2025, operates the only commercially available supersonic fleet capable of sustained MACH 2 flight, continued programs with government and defense collaborators, and cited a Dec 18, 2025 White House Executive Order that the company says supports commercial space capabilities. Starfighters plans disciplined execution and operational expansion in 2026.
Starfighters Space (NYSE AMERICAN: FJET) begins trading today on NYSE American under the ticker FJET, with trading scheduled to start at 10:30 a.m. EST on December 18, 2025.
The company raised an aggregate of $40 million in connection with the listing to advance R&D, scale operations and accelerate its STARLAUNCH I and STARLAUNCH II programs. Both STARLAUNCH programs are currently in development and are described as intended for sub-orbital launches of small satellites and payloads using the company’s F-104 supersonic aircraft fleet. Management highlighted plans to begin launches out of Texas and expand hypersonic R&D/T&E capabilities.
