About Cobra AERO
THE COBRA FAMILY OF COMPANIES
Today, the Cobra family of companies designs, develops, and manufactures roughly 2000 propulsion systems per year for several specialty markets including racing, fire fighting, aerospace, surface, and underwater vehicles. Their ability to readily adapt to new market opportunities stems from the collaboration fostered through shared resources, knowledge, and design expertise from both Cobra MOTO and Cobra AERO.
THE BEGINNING COBRA MOTO
Founded in 1993, Cobra MOTO began to pave the way for future innovation through their design, engineering, and manufacturing of revolutionary engines for an elite brand of motocross bikes. Our dedication to producing the finest competition minicycles in the world has made our three models the most competitive in terms of performance in the mini category. Cobra MOTO is the only producer of competition off-road motorcycles that are truly “Made in the U.S.A.”
COBRA AERO A NEW CHAPTER
Utilizing the resources and innovative thinking of its Cobra MOTO team, Cobra AERO was established in 2012 for the purpose of creating a safer, more connected world through the precise application of advanced engine technology. While Cobra AERO was initially focused on building engines for small unmanned aircraft, they quickly adapted to meet market demand in other areas.
