The company plans to replace long, traffic-laden commutes with swift, 10-20 minute electric flights in its Midnight aircraft, with the network set to begin operations as early as 2026.

Southwest Airlines and Archer Aviation have signed an MOU to develop electric air taxi networks at California airports. This initiative aims to reduce travel time and enhance customer experience with low-emission eVTOL aircraft.

The company has successfully completed a transition to wing-borne flight. Essential for commercial viability.

This collaboration, initially focusing on high-performance battery cells and safety testing, aims to drive progress in Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) and potentially in space applications.

This strategic partnership is set to bolster Archer's recent announcement to initiate air taxi operations in Abu Dhabi and Dubai by 2026.

The partnership focuses on employing BETA’s Charge Cube systems at Archer's flight test facilities and incorporating BETA's Mini Cube mobile chargers for flexible deployment.

This development is built upon Archer’s extensive flight testing experience, including two years of full-scale tests with its Maker aircraft.

This collaboration aims to establish Archer’s first international headquarters and manufacturing facilities in the Smart and Autonomous Vehicle Industry (SAVI) Cluster in Abu Dhabi.

This influx of capital pushes Archer’s total funding beyond the $1.1 billion mark, a financial milestone crucial for the company's ambitious roadmap towards obtaining FAA certification and initiating commercial operations by 2025.

The deal will involve the delivery of up to six of Archer's Midnight aircraft to the Air Force, in addition to sharing flight test data, pilot training, and developing maintenance and repair operations.

The visit included over 70 representatives from various federal agencies with support facilitating the safe entry of eVTOL aircraft into the U.S. market by 2025

The companies are making significant progress in the construction of the world's first high-volume electric Vertical Takeoff and Landing (eVTOL) aircraft manufacturing facility
