Airhart Secures New Funding for Next-Gen Avionics Rollout

‍LOS ANGELES — Airhart Aeronautics has closed a new funding round that will fast-track development of its next-generation avionics platform and support the early stages of its future aircraft program. The investment marks a key milestone in the company’s three-phase roadmap, which includes Airhart Avionics, a proprietary Fly-by-Wire system, and a clean-sheet personal aircraft.

The new capital enables Airhart to bring its pilot-centric avionics suite to market—an intelligence layer designed to simplify cockpit workflows and interface seamlessly with a variety of airframes, electrical architectures, and future digital aircraft environments. Branded as the first avionics system “built to think like a pilot,” the platform focuses on intuitive flight displays, adaptive automation, and enhanced safety envelopes.

Airhart CEO Nikita Ermoshkin, a former SpaceX engineer and Cornell University alumnus, underscored the company’s broader mission to make flying as intuitive as driving, noting that although nearly 300 million Americans live within ten miles of a local airport, only 0.2% hold a pilot license. The company believes modern digital controls, simplified interfaces, and forthcoming MOSAIC regulations create ideal conditions for a new wave of personal-aviation adoption.

The funding will drive three major initiatives:

1. Completion of Airhart Avionics’ core software and interface;
2. Scaling the platform for multi-airframe installation across experimental, LSA, and MOSAIC-category aircraft; and
3. Advancing Airhart’s Fly-by-Wire architecture, which will anchor the design of the future Airhart Aircraft.

With the avionics platform positioned as a bridge between today’s mixed cockpit ecosystem and tomorrow’s fully digital aircraft, Airhart says it is building the foundation for a new generation of safer, simpler, and more accessible personal flight.
