Elroy Air
Enabling autonomous delivery of critical, heavy cargo for defense, commercial, and rapid response.
About Elroy Air
Elroy Air is a U.S.-based technology company redefining how critical cargo moves. Chaparral, our autonomous heavy-cargo drone, was designed for the missions that can't wait — defense resupply, commercial logistics, and rapid response. Powered by a patented hybrid-electric powertrain that delivers the range of fuel with the reliability of electric propulsion, Chaparral flies with no pilot onboard and takes off and lands vertically without runways or specialized infrastructure. Selected under the White House’s Unleashing American Drone Dominance initiative as the only purpose-built heavy-cargo drone in the eIPP, Chaparral is defining the standard for autonomous cargo flight in the United States.
