US-based Swiss aerospace manufacturer
Stellar Jet is a US-based Swiss aerospace manufacturer focused on developing hydrogen-powered vertical‐takeoff‐and‐landing (VTOL) aircraft.[1][2][3][4][5][6] Originally founded as Sirius Aviation AG, the company rebranded to Stellar Aircraft (or Stellar Aviation) and has become known for its concept and development of the Stellar Jet.[7][8]
History
The company was founded by Alexey Popov in 2021 under Sirius Aviation AG. The initial phase mainly focused on R&D and had a team of over 100 engineers.[9][10]
In February 2024, Stellar Jet partnered with India-based seaplane operator MEHAIR for over 50 jets valued at $400 million.[11][12] In March, Stellar Jet introduced two aircraft with zero emissions,[13] the CEO Jet and Adventure Jet, at the MOVE Expo in London.[14][15][16] In March 2024, the company partnered with PARQ Development for an investment of $50 million to help air travel and tourism in Bali, Indonesia.[17][18][19][20] In August 2024, Stellar Jet partnered with Marathon Group Australia in Sydney to implement zero emission airports.[21][22] In 2025, the company rebranded to Stellar Aircraft and moved its headquarters to Delaware, US.[23]
Fleet
The CEO-Jet is targeted towards leisure and business flights,[24] while the Adventure Jet focuses on adventure-based activities as it can fly over mountains, through jungles, and other regions a typical aircraft may not reach. The jets are co-designed by BMW‘s Designworks and Sauber Motorsport.[24][25][26]
| Aircraft | Seats | Power | Speed | Range | Capacity |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| CEO-Jet | Up to 3 passengers | 28000 N | 323 Mph (520 Km/H) | 1150 Mi (1850 Km) | 1350 lbs (612 Kg) |
| Adventure Jet | Up to 5 passengers | 52000 N | 323 Mph (520 Km/H) | 650 Mi (1050 Km) | 3050 lbs (1384 Kg) |
