Red Arrow builds the perfect engine to enable a broad use of new aircraft. The upcoming drone revolution requires a new kind of drivetrain. Electric motors are cheap, but the current battery technology limits the range. To go over long distances, fuel engines are needed
Red Arrow builds a new type of jet engine
the Heron Fan
with a similar thermodynamic cycle as a turbofan, its unique layout makes it so special. The Heron Fan combines the core compressor, the turbine and the Fan into one single component
The unique layout make the jet engine much more simple and less complex. The three components are combined in one.
This enables our engine to be:
Red Arrow - short form of Redefining Aerospace - is our mission and vision. Throughout the history of aerospace, progress was only enabled by brave engineers who were willing to push the boundaries of what is possible. They enabled mankind to travel the world, reach the farthest points on earth in less than a day and even put a man on the moon. But we are driven by progress and liberty. Neither our imagination nor our will has limits. Everything seems to be always impossible, until someone does it. Technical progress requires a constant succession of revolution and evolution. A process, that must never end
The reduced weight of the Heron Fan enables aircraft to transport more payload
Lower complexity means lower production and manufacturing costs
A component that does not exist cannot fail. Heron Fan offers a higher reliability and operational readiness
The high efficiency and light weight of the Heron Fan reduces the CO2 emissions and make aircraft fly further
