History
Karem Aircraft was founded by Abe Karem in 2004. Karem Aircraft is a participant in the US Army’s Joint Multi-Role Technology Demonstration (JMR TD) program. Other recent Karem contributions include work on DARPA’s VTOL X-Plane (VXP) program and DoD’s Joint Heavy Lift (JHL) and Joint Future Theater Lift (JFTL) programs. Several privately funded initiatives are also underway at Karem, including development of the AeroTrain® and AeroCommuter® Optimum Speed Tiltrotors intended for commercial passenger transportation.
Prior to founding Karem Aircraft, Abe Karem founded Leading Systems and Frontier Systems. Leading Systems developed the Amber and GNAT 750 (predecessors of the General Atomics MQ-1 Predator). At Frontier Systems, Abe led the development of Optimum Speed Rotor (OSR) technology and unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) systems, as well as the A160 Hummingbird Optimum-Speed Rotor UAV, now owned by Boeing.
