The next step after Horus — a people-transport VTOL platform planned for 2032+, extending hybrid-electric flight from cargo to passengers.
V-SKY SYSTEMS is building in sequence. First comes V-Model Hera — a 35 kg class last-mile platform that is easier to certificate and faster to place with clients. Next is V-Model Horus, our 220 kg hybrid-electric heavy-lift cargo aircraft. Once those cargo platforms have proven the architecture, we advance to people transport with V-Model Iris.
Iris is planned for 2032+: a passenger-capable VTOL that carries the same hybrid-electric DNA, high-altitude performance, and reliability standards developed on Horus — reconfigured for safe, efficient human flight.
Iris builds on the Horus flight architecture — adapted for people, not pallets.
Proven VTOL lift for vertical passenger access
Efficient cruise for regional people transport
Passenger-focused interior and safety systems
| Capability | V-Model Iris Vision |
|---|---|
| People transport mission | Yes Passenger VTOL for 2032+ |
| Built on Horus architecture | Yes Hybrid-electric VTOL lineage |
| High-altitude regional access | Yes Alpine and remote routes |
Cargo operations with Horus validate the hybrid VTOL system under demanding industrial conditions. That flight experience — lift, cruise, power management, and reliability — becomes the foundation for Iris passenger certification and operations.
Iris is planned to enter the people-transport mission in 2032+, moving passengers where roads and runways fall short — connecting remote communities, alpine sites, and regional hubs with quiet, efficient hybrid-electric flight.
Passenger flight demands a rigorous safety and certification journey. Iris will incorporate cabin systems, redundancy, and human-factors design while retaining the operational DNA proven on Horus in cargo service.
Iris specifications will be published as the programme advances from Horus validation toward passenger development. Contact us for roadmap briefings.
