Defense Applications

BETA delivers higher throughputs, lower costs and greater effectiveness with scalable ecosystems and mission ready adaptability.

Mission Tested

BETA has developed a unique eVTOL air system that is the complete package and includes an air vehicle and charging network that will surely compete well in this emerging competitive market.

The advantage in contested logistics 

The BETA ecosystem supports mission generation by freeing up critical aviation assets.  BETA's products have demonstrated exceptional reliability, greater efficiency and lower operating costs, all while reducing risk. 

Simple and flexible designs result in minimal maintenance, yielding higher throughputs than trucks or legacy aircraft. Operators can reduce their reliance on supply chains and enable small-group movements with dispersed logistics.

 

Effective Execution Immediate incorporation into existing missions
Reliable System Infrastructure and modular subsystems
Increased Throughput Reduced logistics burden in multiple domains
Reduced Maintenance Increased operational availability

Advanced Technologies

Hybrid and autonomous operations increase range and payload capabilities.  The attributable dual-platform architecture shared by the ALIA VTOL and CTOL supports a scalable, effective, and reliable ecosystem of advanced air mobility operations.

Increase Throughput

Our AAM airframes and technology solutions support mission generation by freeing up critical aviation assets and allowing for effective transports with minimum downtime thanks to a demonstrated 98% dispatch reliability and 100% operational availability.

Demonstrated Use

Spotlight deployment: Duke Field at Eglin Air Force Base

What

Operational experimentation of electric aircraft and its charging capabilities to demonstrate resupply operations to disbursed locations.

BETA provided training and support from October '24 through January '24 with the ALIA platform and the nation's first aircraft charger installed on DOD soil. BETA proved 100% operational reliability and 98% dispatch reliability, as operated by Air Force Reserve Command pilots and maintainers.

Application experimentation AFWERX
Why it’s important:

● Evaluated the value of using an electric aircraft to support distributed forces

● Showed time savings, reduced costs, and increased flexibility for these scenarios

● For intra-island: significantly faster than surface movement 

● For inter-island: demonstrated capability to move cargo inside the island chain

BETA has over two years of Agility Prime partner demonstrations and operations experience in simulated contested environments.

Medical Transport and Casualty Evacuation

Designed for medical transport. ALIA executes on every mission giving it the operational advantage as demonstrated through use case testing at Duke Field.

Maintenance Response Team Operational range and payload make incorporation into existing missions simple and effective.
Contested Logistics

Distributing materiel and personnel more frequently reduces risk and increases effectiveness.

Distinguished Visitor Transport

A range of solutions allow for fuel independence, flexibility, operational efficiency, and low costs.

American Manufacturing

We are proud to be a US aerospace manufacturer. Our pragmatic approach to certification and production is built on domestic manufacturing, and our commitment to America means we also source our supply chain domestically whenever possible.
