The startup, founded in 2019 by aerospace engineer Norris T, who previously worked at Northrop Grumman and Lockheed Martin, intended to develop a series of aircraft, including the supersonic airliner Horizon, the supersonic UAVs Revenant, and Trident.

Exospace even achieved a degree of success, raising $6.5 million in investments and securing contracts with the U.S. Air Force for the development of supersonic training drones.

The engineers managed to build and showcase a prototype of one of their models in April 2024; however, that was where it ended. The company is now offering its developments for sale to all interested parties.
