Distribute logistics, save fuel, sustain airpower

Press releaseIssued by Whisper Aero.

Today, we’re announcing Collaborative Logistics Aircraft (or CLA for short), a family of rightsized systems for contested air logistics. These aircraft will leverage Whisper’s UltraQuiet, ultra-efficient technology to fly critical payloads when it matters most, decoupling crews from deliveries and saving fuel for life-saving missions. Whisper has been selected for AFWERX STRATFI funding towards this effort to accelerate maturation of this capability.
