“The challenge for the Air Force and the aerospace industry is to find smarter ways of doing business, to get the most for our procurement dollars”
- General Ronald R. Fogleman,
Air Force Chief of Staff (Ret.)
We are pleased to present Stavatti's Advanced Manufacturing For Supersonic Aircraft video as submitted in response to the Tradewinds Solutions Marketplace Special Topic Solicitation. Part of the Industrial Base Analysis and Sustainment (IBAS) program, this no more than 5 minute video was released on June 24th in response of the U.S. Defense Industrial Base need to support the manufacturing of supersonic aircraft.
The manufacturing and sustainment of supersonic aircraft currently faces challenges related to cost, production speed, material availability and the obsolescence of legacy systems. Stavatti was established specifically to address and correct these issues and serve as an American manufacturer that can develop and produce advanced supersonic military-as well as civil-supersonic aircraft that are effective, affordable and very sexy!

Stavatti SM-31 Stiletto Aircraft Dimensions drawing in blueprint blue. This is a stylized version of what has been prepared in response to Section 2.2.2.1.6-Geometry- of the UJTS RFP General Instructions, providing a three view drawing of the aircraft while illustrating key aircraft dimensions and data.
And Then There Were Three. There are now three remaining competitors for the USN UJTS Competition. Stavatti was prepared to submit our RFP response today June 29th but the response date was extended to July 23rd. With Boeing and Lockheed Martin no longer competing that leaves Stavatti, Textron/Leonardo and Sierra Nevada Corporation.
Last Tuesday June 9th Founder and CEO Chris Beskar and Director of Military Aerospace Dick Guild had the honor of presenting Stavatti to the Air & Space Forces Association's Ones-To-Watch Team at their Airlington, Virginia headquarters. The presentation included a 15 minute briefing about Stavatti and our potential solutions to ensure US Air Supremacy. On display at the presentation was a newly crafted desktop model of the SM-39 Razor as produced by FDM.
On June 29th Stavatti will be one of at least four competitors submitting a formal response to the US Navy Undergraduate Jet Training System (UJTS) Request For Proposal to replace the T-45 Goshawk. One month to go!
