Aircraft program
Composite light aircraft with rear mounted piston pusher, V-tail and canards. Also Valkyrie-X experimental version. Previously named Cobalt Co50.

The aircraft as engineered: what it is built from, the systems it flies with, and its configuration — each box a theme.
Notable technologies — each tag names a technology on our research record for this aircraft, with its fitting status: Primary, Standard, Option or Planned.
Technical reference compiled with AI research; a value appears only where two independent research passes and a web fact-check agree. Gaps are deliberate.
