Signature Aviation and UrbanV have announced the launch of Signature UrbanV Alliance (SUVA), the US joint venture first announced in June 2025 and now formally established, marking the transition from planning to implementation to develop and operate advanced air mobility infrastructure across the United States.
Unveiled at NBAA-BACE 2026, SUVA brings together Signature Aviation’s U.S. aviation footprint and operating capabilities with UrbanV’s AAM infrastructure expertise. SUVA will develop an integrated AAM network connecting airports with urban and regional destinations, starting from existing Signature terminal locations and expanding into dedicated vertiports and other purpose-built infrastructure as demand grows, said the companies in a press release.
Rather than developing individual sites in isolation, SUVA will build connected networks around existing aviation demand, giving manufacturers and operators the infrastructure and airport access needed to launch and expand AAM services.
Initial deployments are expected to integrate electric aircraft operations into existing aviation facilities, including charging, aircraft handling and guest services, allowing early operations to benefit from established infrastructure and existing guest demand. As operations and demand grow, SUVA plans to add dedicated vertiports in urban and regional destinations, creating an integrated network of on-airport and off-airport locations and extending connectivity closer to guests’ final destinations.
SUVA will provide a common infrastructure platform for multiple aircraft manufacturers and operators, rather than serving a single aircraft type or operator.
