Undisclosed

The $5.3 million FAA award will fund the installation of engine and nacelle instrumentation on JetZero's full-scale Jet1 aircraft demonstrator to measure and collect airflow data for its top-mounted engines in an all-wing configuration. The project will capture airflow measurements at the engine inlet and fan exit during takeoff, climb, cruise, and crosswind ground operations under realistic operating conditions. The collected data will help evaluate the aircraft's engine integration and aerodynamic performance while supporting the development of more fuel-efficient, lower-emission, and quieter commercial aircraft through the FAA's CLEEN Phase IV program.

JetZero is developing an ultra-efficient Blended Wing Body jet with unprecedented performance. Working with the US Air Force, NASA and the FAA for entry-into-service by 2030. The JetZero Blended Wing is the biggest leap in commercial aircraft design since the beginning of the jet age and the best first step toward the ultimate goal of zero-carbon emissions aviation. The aircraft will launch in 2030 with 100% SAF compatibility, and the internal volume to accommodate zero-carbon hydrogen.
