[ FAQ ]
-
Dragon Transport Group is developing a new electric jet propulsion architecture that replaces the traditional combustion chamber with an induction-heated thermo chamber. Instead of burning fuel, electrical energy is converted directly into controlled thermal energy to generate high-velocity airflow capable of producing turbine-class thrust.
-
No. Dragon is not limited to batteries. The propulsion system is power-source agnostic and is designed to operate with batteries, hydrogen fuel cells, grid-supplied electricity for testing, or future high-density energy sources. This flexibility is critical to long-term scalability.
-
Hydrogen combustion and sustainable aviation fuels still rely on combustion physics. Dragon’s approach eliminates combustion entirely from the core, changing the thermodynamic architecture of the engine. This enables fundamentally lower emissions, new control characteristics, and a different long-term cost and safety profile.
-
The system is being engineered specifically for turbofan-class thrust ranges, not just small drones or experimental platforms. Development is proceeding through scaled thermo-chamber testing, material validation, and system-level modeling before full integration.
-
The thermo chamber is based on high-temperature graphite and advanced materials selected for thermal stability, durability, and compatibility with induction heating. Specific compositions and geometries are proprietary.
-
Dragon Transport Group has completed core concept development and is currently executing
scaled prototype testing focused on thermal performance, induction efficiency, and material
behavior. Engine-level integration is part of the next funded development phase.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
The architecture is designed with integration in mind, allowing adaptation to existing turbofan platforms and future clean-sheet designs. This creates a potential pathway for retrofit programs, demonstrators, or licensing partnerships with OEMs.
-
As with any breakthrough propulsion system, risks include materials endurance, thermal management, power electronics scaling, and system integration. These risks are being addressed systematically through staged testing, conservative design margins, and modular development.
-
Dragon’s advantage lies in combining induction heating, high-temperature materials, and propulsion system integration into a single architecture. This creates a defensible technology position that is difficult to replicate without deep expertise across multiple engineering disciplines.
-
Primary markets include regional and business aviation, advanced air mobility, and defense or special-mission aircraft—segments actively seeking propulsion solutions that reduce emissions without sacrificing performance.
-
The current financing round supports prototype build-out, testing infrastructure, engineering hires, IP development, and preparation for integrated propulsion demonstrations.
-
Yes. Dragon Transport Group is open to discussions with venture capital firms, strategic investors, aerospace partners, and government research entities aligned with long-horizon propulsion innovation.
