Zephyr

AALTO HAPS Ltd. aims to deploy its Zephyr aircraft from four or five bases around the world, starting with an operational hub in Laikipia County, Kenya, early next year.

Airbus selected Kenya as the preferred hub for the Zephyr initiative due to optimal weather conditions, business-friendly practices, a substantial talent pool, and quick licensing processes.

Each hub for the Zephyr initiative will include launch and landing ports, maintenance facilities, assembly lines with a production capacity of up to 50 aircraft per year, an operations center, and customer support facilities.

The Zephyr aircraft can remain airborne for more than 30 days and has unique takeoff and landing capabilities.
