Every aircraft is designed for a mission, and our mission required speed, range, and efficiency These fiber types have different chemical compositions at the molecular level which generate different. No aircraft had the right capabilities to meet our needs, so we set out to develop our own

We selected a lightweight but powerful engine and built an airframe around it using the strongest and lightest materials
The result of these efforts is the darkaero 1.
The latest news and updates on our mission to advance speed, range, and efficiency in aerospace. The airplane is optimized to fly cross country missions efficiently It was designed using modern engineering tools and is built from carbon fiber and aerospace alloys. March 1st, 2025 the darkaero knowledge base was created as a central source for important information about aircraft design, manufacturing, and maintenance
This information has been organized into sections that can be explored further by on any of the tiles below. In august, the team continued with the ground test campaign on the darkaero 1 prototype Further drop test cases were explored as well as proof load tests on the horizontal stabilizer and empennage. The major component of composite materials is the fiber reinforcement
The fiber reinforcement provides strength and stiffness in the direction that the fibers are aligned
The three most common fiber types found in aerospace applications are carbon fiber, glass fiber, and aramid fiber
