The Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) National Strategy 2025 from the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) sets a whole-of-government roadmap to safely scale air taxis, cargo drones, and other AAM services across the United States over the next decade. Developed by the Advanced Air Mobility Interagency Working Group, it aligns federal policy, infrastructure investment, and community engagement to position the U.S. as a global leader in advanced aviation.transportation+2
What this Strategy Covers
The AAM National Strategy outlines how federal agencies will support the development and integration of AAM aircraft—such as eVTOLs and other powered‑lift platforms—into the national airspace system while maintaining high safety, security, and national defense standards. Organized around key pillars including airspace, infrastructure, security, community planning and engagement, workforce, and automation, the document provides concrete recommendations and a companion Comprehensive Plan that sequences implementation over multiple phases.
Why it Matters for AAM
This strategy is designed to accelerate U.S. deployment of AAM services, encourage smart and timely private investment, and foster new public benefits such as improved mobility, economic development, emergency response, and accessibility for underserved communities. It also seeks to modernize air traffic management for high‑tempo, low‑altitude operations, optimize existing airports and vertiports, and catalyze new energy and digital infrastructure to support scaled autonomous and remotely piloted operations by the mid‑2030s.t
Who Should Read It
The AAM National Strategy 2025 is essential reading for OEMs, operators, airports, vertiport developers, state and local planners, investors, and policymakers who need a clear view of how federal actions will shape market timelines and certification pathways. It provides guidance for state, local, Tribal, and territorial governments on aligning land use, infrastructure, and community engagement with emerging AAM services, while also outlining global leadership goals that will influence international standards and cross‑border operations.
