Overview

What They Do

eJet Aerospace is pioneering the world’s first 100% electric cold jet propulsion system, SMAPAD® (Articulated Mechatronics’ Aerodynamic System for Propulsion and Aircraft Vertical Takeoff). Unlike propeller-driven eVTOLs, SMAPAD® generates jet-level thrust with zero emissions, low cost of operation, and unmatched safety and certifiability. Our first aircraft, the GJet Kóan, offers Extended Air Mobility (XAM) for civil use and Electric Tactical Stealth Aircraft (eTSA) capabilities for defense. With a range of 349 miles, a 23,000 ft ceiling, and VTOL capability, it outperforms every electric aircraft in development today. To date, we have: • Completed over 27,000 hours of R&D • Achieved CFD thrust validation with ANSYS • Flown a 1:9 scale model through 200+ successful flight cycles • Secured patents protecting SMAPAD® technology We are now seeking $250,000 to complete final engineering and preparation for the SMAPAD® 2.0 prototype (target: 14,000 Newtons of thrust, Q4 2025). This milestone will unlock major licensing and partnership opportunities with OEMs like Bell and Sikorsky, and mobility platforms such as Uber. This investment bridges us from scientific validation to full-scale prototype readiness—positioning eJet Aerospace as the leader in zero-emissions jet propulsion and next-generation air mobility.
