Joby Aviation could soon be the first eVTOL air taxi developer to operate its aircraft on U.S. Air Force bases. The California-based company announced Tuesday that it has received a $55 million contract extension from the USAF’s Agility Prime program, bringing the total potential value of its defense contracts up to $131 million.
As part of the new deal, Joby is planning to deliver up to nine of its five-seat air taxis to USAF bases. The first two are expected to arrive at Edwards Air Force Base in Southern California by early 2024. Joby says the learnings from its work with the Department of Defense will help the company build momentum as it gears up for the launch of its commercial air taxi services in 2025.
