Horizon Aircraft has entered into a strategic partnership with MT-Propeller, which will provide propellers for Horizon’s hybrid turbine engine.

The partnership draws on MT-Propeller’s composite propeller technology to boost performance, speed and efficiency while significantly reducing noise. The collaboration will support Horizon’s in-development Cavorite X7, a hybrid-electric aircraft capable of both vertical takeoff and conventional runway operations.

“Partnering with MT-Propeller underscores Horizon’s commitment to delivering a superior flying experience,” says Horizon Aircraft’s chief engineer Brian Robinson. “Together, we're setting new standards for range, speed and efficiency with our regional eVTOL. In particular, MT-Propeller’s world-leading low-noise design is well suited for operations around cities.”

“We’re excited to support Horizon Aircraft’s vision with our certified propellers, enhancing performance and sustainability in the fast-evolving eVTOL market,” adds MT-Propeller’s managing director Martin Albrecht.

This move supports Horizon’s push toward certification and production readiness as it continues to develop its aircraft for regional use.
