Our Future Projects:

Development Roadmap

 You might be wondering what the future holds for X-Crafts. While the possibilities are endless, our ultimate goal is to be great, not big. We want to be a fine‑dining restaurant with a smaller menu, rather than a fast food chain. That way we will be able to guarantee that every item on the menu will be great. With that said, let’s have a look at what we have planned right now.

 

E-Freighters

We already have passenger regional jets and executive jets, and now we'll close the gap with freighter regional jets. We'll include the E190F and E195F, as these are the only two variants certified for freighter purposes.

The E-Freighters will feature the full suite of E-Jet automated systems, with an accurate cargo interior based on real-world aircraft references. We will also include a new ULD loader, which will enable you to load various types of cargo into the airplanes.

E190-E2 & E195-E2

Many people ask us if we will also develop the new E2 variants of the E-Jets.

The answer is yes!
