Otto Aerospace develops laminar-flow business aircraft that aim to significantly reduce drag, fuel consumption, and emissions compared with conventional jets. The company is designing the Phantom 3500, a transonic super-midsize jet that combines long range, cabin comfort, and reduced operating costs using full-fuselage laminar flow,
all-carbon-fiber structures, and advanced avionics. Its technology stack includes aerodynamic optimization, digital twin engineering, advanced manufacturing, and a proprietary aerodynamic AI model to accelerate airfoil and configuration design. Otto Aerospace validates its concepts through flight test demonstrators such as the Celera 500 and collaborates with partners for engines, landing gear, fuel systems, and tooling. The company targets business and commercial aviation customers seeking more efficient and lower-emission aircraft.
