Insights
XTI Aerospace strengthens defense strategy by adding AI expert Charlie Burgoyne to its advisory board, signaling expanded military applications for its aircraft technologies.
XTI Aerospace's appointment of Charlie Burgoyne to its Corporate Advisory Board represents a strategic enhancement of the company's defense capabilities. Burgoyne's extensive background in AI and decision-intelligence through his companies Valkyrie and Andromeda, coupled with his advisory role to CENTCOM, brings valuable expertise in military applications for XTI's aviation technologies.
This addition continues XTI's pattern of building a defense-oriented advisory team, following recent appointments of key figures from Palantir Canada, U.S. Space Force, and defense manufacturer Paramount Group. The company is clearly positioning its flagship TriFan 600 xVTOL aircraft for potential defense applications while laying groundwork for unmanned autonomous systems.
The timing aligns with the June 2025 Presidential Executive Order on Domestic Drone Production, which emphasizes U.S.-made VTOL aircraft for national security interests. XTI appears to be strategically positioning itself at the intersection of autonomy, aerial mobility, and defense readiness - potentially opening access to defense contracts and partnerships.
This advisory appointment signals XTI's dual-use strategy: developing commercial applications of its TriFan 600 while simultaneously pursuing defense market opportunities that could provide stable government revenue streams. Burgoyne's AI expertise suggests XTI is looking to enhance its aircraft with intelligent systems capabilities essential for modern military operations and autonomous flight systems.
XTI Accelerates Defense and Unmanned Aircraft Systems Strategy
"Charlie is helping to architect the AI-powered intelligence systems behind real-time decision making—on the battlefield and in the boardroom," said Scott Pomeroy, Chairman and CEO of XTI Aerospace. "That's the kind of operational edge we're embedding into XTI's strategy."
Mr. Burgoyne brings to XTI 15+ years of cutting-edge experience in artificial intelligence and data science across defense and commercial sectors. From NASA and the United States Department of Energy to Rosetta Stone, F1 Racing and now two thriving AI ventures, he's helped pioneer applied AI in high-stakes environments. His appointment deepens XTI's ability to design and market aircraft systems that are not only vertically agile but algorithmically smart—vital to rapidly evolving unmanned aircraft systems ("UAS"), regional transportation, and multi-use mission platforms.
XTI is building upon its national security-grade brain trust following the recent additions of Hanna Tomory, head of Palantir Canada, Preston Dunlap, former Chief Technology Officer and Chief Architect of
"The future of aerospace belongs to intelligent platforms that combine real-world utility with next-gen software and data systems," said Mr. Burgoyne. "The TriFan 600 sets the bar for high-performance, manned VTOL—I am excited to bring my knowledge and experience to the intersection of AI and defense to expand the foundation of XTI technologies to develop a broad defense and autonomy-focused portfolio."
XTI's strategic priorities are directly aligned with the national posture articulated in the June 2025 Presidential Executive Order on Domestic Drone Production, which positions
