Natilus is revolutionizing the 75-year-old status quo of freight transportation through innovation and advanced technologies, to make air freight costs competitive to cargo shipping and dramatically improve delivery times.
Natilus has designed and developed a blended-wing, autonomous global air freight system that can offer services at a fraction of the cost of today’s transport, while reducing negative impacts on our environment.
Whether it’s a short-hop or intercontinental transport, the fleet of Natilus vehicles will transport more cargo with a more aerodynamic profile to make the entire solution a less costly system to operate, with 50% less CO2.
With a patent-pending ‘Diamond’ cargo-bay, Natilus offers an efficient blended wing body configuration that allows for 60% more volume. Designed around cargo, the aircraft can hold a large configuration of standard pallets, outsized cargo, and without a contouring requirement. All with a remote pilot watching over.
Natilus aircraft use the existing ground infrastructure, and standard air cargo containers making Natilus products a turnkey solution.
Pilot shortages stagnate airline growth, leading to serious bottlenecks in our global supply chain. Natilus FAA certifiable autopilot allows air freight operators to scale with Natilus products.
