New Horizon Aircraft, doing business as Horizon Aircraft, an advanced aerospace engineering company and developer of one the world’s first hybrid eVTOL (electric Vertical Take-Off and Landing) aircraft, announces a strategic partnership with MT-Propeller, a global leader in advanced propeller technology, to supply propellers for Horizon’s hybrid turbine engine.
This collaboration will leverage MT-Propeller’s cutting-edge composite propeller expertise, delivering maximum speed, efficiency, and significant noise reduction for the Company’s Cavorite X7 in development. The hybrid-electric aircraft, uniquely designed for both vertical takeoff and conventional runway operations, will benefit from MT’s innovative, quiet, and high-efficiency propeller solutions.
"Partnering with MT-Propeller underscores Horizon’s commitment to delivering a superior flying experience," said Brian Robinson, Chief Engineer at Horizon Aircraft. "Together, we’re setting new standards for range, speed, and efficiency with our regional eVTOL. In particular, MT-Propeller’s world-leading low-noise design is well suited for operations around cities."
Martin Albrecht, Managing Director of MT-Propeller, added, "We’re excited to support Horizon Aircraft’s vision with our certified propellers, enhancing performance and sustainability in the fast-evolving eVTOL market."
This partnership marks a critical step toward certification and production readiness, accelerating Horizon Aircraft’s journey to transform regional air mobility.
