AIG Aerospace, Inc.
AIG Aerospace Timeline and Story
2010: Early testing of large radio-controlled models of the box-wing VTOL concept at NASA Ames Research Center, Moffett Field, California, by Oliver Garrow and team, establishing foundational validation for the design's superior efficiency and performance.
2013: Formation of Elytron Aircraft LLC in Hayward, California, to advance the convertiplane concept integrating vertical takeoff capabilities with fixed-wing cruise efficiency.
2015: Completion and public unveiling of the Elytron two-seat manned proof-of-concept airframe at the HAI Heli Expo; continued iterative testing and refinement at NASA Ames facilities.
2016–2018: Intensive aerodynamic analysis and testing of the two-seat manned prototype and scaled UAV models at NASA Ames, encompassing computational fluid dynamics simulations, wind tunnel tests (including US Army 7x10 facility), and evaluations in hover and low-speed forward flight modes.
2017: Drone product advances to pre-production phase—a pivotal milestone featuring the setup of initial manufacturing facilities in Asia and completion of specialized tooling and production processes.
2019–2024: Elytron technology—including CFD models, wind tunnel data, prototypes, and NASA validations—is preserved and repurposed for the UAV market.
December 2024: Atlantic Industrial Group (AIG) acquires Elytron Aircraft’s comprehensive library of technology.
January 2025: AIG executes alliance agreements for the development of high-altitude applications for T-Wing drones based on Elytron technology.
2025: Formation of AIG Aerospace Inc. as a subsidiary under Atlantic Industrial Group, specializing in advanced VTOL drones.
March 2025: Full-sized 8-foot T-Wing airframes are 3D printed for verification and refinement of manufacturing processes.
October 2025: AIG Aerospace admitted to the NASDAQ Private Market.
November–December 2025: AIG Aerospace appoints CEO and CFO, while expanding the board to support development of manufacturing facilities in the Mississippi Gulf Coast region.
The journey of AIG Aerospace represents a deliberate strategic consolidation, securing proven box-wing VTOL technologies originally developed by Elytron Aircraft LLC under Atlantic Industrial Group Inc.'s ownership. This acquisition revived extensive NASA-validated research and aerodynamics data, enabling the establishment of AIG Aerospace as a specialized subsidiary dedicated to adapting, manufacturing, and licensing these advanced designs for contemporary UAV applications, including the T-Wing series
Our flagship platform, the T-Wing, is the only independently verified by NASA for its aerodynamic efficiency and flight capabilities.
The T-Wing is the only all weather, high wind and completely stable transition from VTOL to loitering UAV on market.
