Lilium N.V. (NASDAQ: LILM), developer of the first all-electric
vertical take-off and landing (“eVTOL”) jet, announced that it has
achieved a significant development milestone with the commencement
of fuselage assembly for the Lilium Jet, which remains on track for
expected first manned flight planned in late 2024. Start of
fuselage assembly serves as another tangible manifestation of
Lilium’s strategic roadmap, demonstrating Lilium’s ability to
progress from vision to execution. This is the first of seven
fuselages for the seven aircraft Lilium will use to achieve
type-certification of the Lilium Jet.
Yves Yemsi, COO of Lilium said: “We’re delighted
to kick off assembly of the first Lilium Jet fuselage at Aciturri,
bringing us one step closer to reshaping sustainable regional air
mobility. We see this as further evidence that our approach of
teaming with proven aerospace suppliers to bring our cutting edge
eVTOL aircraft to market is the optimal strategy as we advance
along a path to certification and entry into service of the Lilium
Jet.”
The fuselage was developed in collaboration
with, and is being built by, tier one aerospace supplier and
strategic partner Aciturri at its facilities in Valladolid, Spain.
The fuselage is planned for delivery to Lilium facilities in
Wessling, Germany in the fourth quarter 2023, prior to planned
start of assembly of the first Lilium Jet by year end.
Klaus Roewe, CEO of Lilium, commented: “This
phase is more than just a technical step – it's a clear signal to
all Lilium stakeholders of our commitment to making regional air
mobility more efficient, enjoyable, and sustainable. As we assemble
the fuselage, we are also crafting a transformative flying
experience while upholding our promise of unparalleled efficiency,
comfort, and safety.”
Strategic Partnership with
Aciturri
This latest phase of Lilium’s program
demonstrates the success of the strategic supplier partnership
between Lilium and Aciturri, leveraging Aciturri's proficiency in
design and manufacturing of high-quality Aerostructures. It follows
a comprehensive industrial program review conducted in late-August
2023 in which leadership from Lilium and Aciturri reviewed and
greenlighted the initial industrial production components and
process.
Aciturri, who is a Lilium investor, is an
established aerospace supplier with nearly 50 years of experience
in commercial aircraft programs, including the design and
manufacturing of major airframe components for Airbus A350, A320,
A400M, Boeing 787 and Embraer KC390 programs, amongst others. As
well as supporting industrialization of the Lilium Jet, Aciturri
will continue to support the Lilium Jet’s design optimization and
certification in the years ahead.
Maria Eugenia Clemente, CEO of Aciturri
Aerostructures: “Aciturri is committed to playing a leading role in
the transformation of sustainable regional air mobility, which
supports Europe’s goal of achieving climate neutrality. We are
fully aligned with Lilium’s vision and design, and we are delighted
to have evolved our partnership to such a foundational stage
towards the birth of the Lilium Jet.”
