Article Summary
HOLD- California's Anduril Industries and San José-based Archer Aviation unveiled a jointly developed hybrid-electric attack drone, dubbed Thunder, at Farnborough International Airshow on Monday, with the defense variant designed to serve both defense and commercial markets.
- The aircraft uses vertical takeoff and landing technology essential to Archer's air taxis and is designed to operate well above 18,000 feet but close to the ground in combat with human-piloted military vehicles.
- Archer Aviation plans to announce the first customers for the commercial variant later this week, targeting 2027 for Thunder's first flight and has completed multiple test flights with a full-scale surrogate aircraft, though it has not announced a price.
- Archer shares surged more than 20% on the news, though Archer Aviation's shares have fallen 34% so far this year as its main competitor in the air taxi space is Joby, which has been entangled in a bitter legal battle with Archer.
- Joby has promised to operate air taxis in Los Angeles in time for the 2028 Olympic Games, though some experts doubt that timeline is realistic.
