Military jet developer Aeralis has reached an agreement to explore possible collaborations with a firm that supports air-to-air refuels of Royal Air Force aircraft.
The Bristol-based start-up manufacturer, which is currently developing a modular aircraft design for the RAF, has said it has signed a memorandum of understanding with AirTanker, which services the RAF’s fleet of Voyager transport planes.
AirTanker, which is based at RAF Brize Norton in Oxfordshire, is owned by a consortium of aerospace and defence giants, including Airbus, Rolls-Royce, Cobham, Babcock and Thales.
