Introduce:

Texo (Hummingbird in Yanomami language) is a cutting-edge tandem, tilt-wing vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) with a hybrid-electric powerplant.

This Design Program started in early 2018, arriving to its airframe stable version in late 2021, and the commercial version for civilian applications in December 2022. The ISTAR/ISR version for law enforcement will be ready by June 2023.

The tandem tilt-wing configuration enables this platform to vertical take-off and land on moving platforms; has fixed-wing cruise speed, stability and efficiency; and optional in-flight hoovering capabilities.

This aircraft concept is optimized for operationally complex missions, where aircraft logistics are constrained, hovering is sometimes required, and payload distribution could affect position of center of gravity, as is the case of cargo hauling.

Texo’s architecture enables the use of the same operational doctrine for all its variants, no matter the size. Our first operational version is a 50kg MTOW aiframe for ISR and IMSI catching in urban operations.

A 650kg MTOW, tactical logistics aircraft with foldable wings for easy storage.

This concept originated from a recent demand from the Oceania Region. During the concept design for the proposal, several operational hurdles were solved, and a consolidated version was produced.

We adopted the codename Unmanned Tactical Logistics (TL) Platformfor the new architecture for high-risk land and sea resupply operations. The Project is entering the detailing phase aiming at manufacturing the first prototype for structural tests by March, 2023.
