Charlotte, NC — September 14, 2026 — TAT Technologies Ltd. (Nasdaq:TATT), a global leader in aerospace thermal management and system solutions serving leading OEMs, airlines, maintenance organizations, air forces, and defense agencies, today announced a collaboration with Beyond Aero, a pioneering French aerospace company developing the world’s first hydrogen-electric business aircraft, to support the thermal management architecture definition of its aircraft program.
Beyond Aero is developing a clean-sheet aircraft architecture built around hydrogen-electric propulsion, which is designed to enable six passengers to fly up to 800 nautical miles (1,500 km), approximately five times farther than comparable battery-powered aircraft. Founded in 2020, the company is focused on fuel-cell propulsion, gaseous hydrogen tank integration, and advanced thermal management. Beyond Aero operates across Toulouse, Paris, and Los Angeles and is supported by a growing team of more than 80 aerospace engineers from leading global companies.
As part of the collaboration, Beyond Aero is currently integrating TAT Technologies’ Universal Cooling System (UCS) into its ONE aircraft design, a scalable, integrated thermal management solution designed to meet the compact size, weight, and performance requirements of next-generation electric and hydrogen-electric aircraft. The UCS is designed to deliver highly efficient, reliable cooling across a wide range of operating conditions, making it well-suited for hydrogen-electric propulsion architectures.
“Hydrogen propulsion represents one of the most promising pathways toward sustainable aviation,” said Igal Zamir, CEO of TAT Technologies. “We are proud to support Beyond Aero as they move this technology forward. Our Universal Cooling System was designed with flexibility, efficiency, and reliability in mind — critical attributes for emerging aircraft platforms like Beyond Aero’s.”
Beyond Aero’s mission to decarbonize business aviation — one of the most challenging segments of the aerospace industry to transition — closely aligns with TAT Technologies’ commitment to enabling cleaner, smarter aircraft systems. Together, the companies are combining deep engineering expertise and forward-looking innovation to advance hydrogen-electric propulsion, reducing reliance on conventional fuels and helping shape a more sustainable future for flight.
“Partnering with TAT Technologies is an important step in building the industrial ecosystem around our hydrogen-electric aircraft program,” said Yannick Schwartzenbart, Head of Program Industrialization at Beyond Aero. “Their experience with leading aerospace customers and mission-critical thermal systems strengthens our ability to develop a reliable, high-performance aircraft architecture while reducing dependence on conventional fuels.”
This partnership represents more than a technology collaboration; it reflects a shared vision to rethink aircraft architecture and help shape the future of sustainable flight.
