PD Aerospace is developing a reusable launch vehicle (space plane). We are looking forward to maximize space utilization through private sector demand such as space tourism and construction of a space based solar power grid.
Our combustion mode switch engine (patented in 2012) will have both a jet mode and a rocket mode propulsion. We are currently developing an engine in parallel with conducting flight tests using unmanned technology demonstrator.
We are supported by ANA HOLDINGS INC.、 H.I.S Group and Mizuho Group. Additionaly, we are sponsored by AISIN SEIKI Co.,Ltd. and many other companies.

“ Be a wing for Space”
4
There are so many amazing possibilities in space, waiting to be discovered and understood. Perhaps, a new kind of resources or energy source is just around the corner.
Space also enables us to reflect upon ourselves and Earth, to deeply understand the preciousness of life and nature.
There are and will be challenges never seen or predicted during our journey to reach the stars. However, we chose to take upon this challenge, because we believe humanity can earn so much from space exploration.
In order to bring space closer to us and, PD Aerospace will continue to pursue the challenge to become the wing for space transport industry.

• A small startup company with less than 50 employees succeded in conducting a spaceflight
and won the Ansari X Prize in 2004. Virgin Galactic acquired the technical licenses, and
started ticket sales priced at 250K USD, with predicted operation from 2020 (tentative).

1) Safety improvement
・Able to abort at any phase of flight
・Able to divert to other airport
・Able to perform touch-and-go landing
2) Lower production and operational cost
・Simple system=lower production and maintenance cost
・Reduce pilot, maintenance personnel, tools and spare part by half
・Does not require specialized airport (can operate on regular airport) = lower operation cost
・High thermal efficiency engine=low fuel consumption
3) Expandable
・Transport system can be used for multiple purposes
