I caught up with Shane Arnott of #Anduril Industries in Dubai last week to discuss the company's new Omen #drone and supplier agreement with #eVTOL developer #ArcherAviation, which has interesting strategy implications for both companies. Full story is online at The Air Current. #aviation #electricaviation #defensetech https://theaircurrent.com/defense/archer-anduril-omen-defense-tech-evtol-investment/

#ArcherAviation is acquiring the patents of defunct German #eVTOL developer #Lilium for 18 million euros, having prevailed in a competitive bidding process that also attracted rival #Joby. I spoke with Archer's CEO and chief legal and strategy officer about the deal for my latest story in The Air Current. #aviation #electricaviation https://theaircurrent.com/feed/dispatches/archer-lilium-evtol-patent-portfolio/

Blade CEO Rob Wiesenthal doesn't expect to see #eVTOL air taxis flying in #NYC until late 2027 or early 2028. But eVTOL companies are actively staking their claims in the market, as evidenced by today's route announcement from #ArcherAviation and #UnitedAirlines, which I wrote about for The Air Current. #aviation #electricaviation https://theaircurrent.com/feed/dispatches/archer-united-new-york-evtol-air-taxi-routes/

In 2021, the downside cases in a Reinvent Technology Partners investment memo struck me as perhaps the most interesting part of #Joby and Reinvent's pitch to #eVTOL investors. Four years later, that memo looks remarkably prescient, as I explain in my latest story for The Air Current. #aviation #electricaviation #archeraviation https://theaircurrent.com/industry-strategy/joby-archer-uae-plan-b-downside-middle-east-defense-evtol/

Other #eVTOL developers may be dropping like flies, but investors keep giving #ArcherAviation more money — $730 million in the last 90 days alone. I caught up with Archer CEO Adam Goldstein yesterday to discuss why. #aviation #electricaviation #defensetech https://theaircurrent.com/feed/dispatches/archer-defense-funding-300mm-raise/
