Strike Fighter League
Briefing Room Investor & Partner Library
The world's first professional air combat sport

Where flight becomes sport.

Two live events proved the infrastructure. Every online cycle retires another risk to the live series — and the Seed round builds the breakout: the Live Professional Series, flown in front of an arena crowd. Proof first — then the full library.

01 · The operating record

Two events on the board — April 4 and July 25, 2026. Both produced end to end on SFL infrastructure. This is what they proved.

03 · The breakout · targeted 2027

The Live Professional Series.

Full-scale F/A-18 and F-16 cockpits under full motion, with the physiological stressors of the craft — G-suits, oxygen-mask surrogates, and biometric tracking streamed like telemetry — flown live in front of an arena crowd and a broadcast audience. Regional qualifiers rotate across the Americas, Europe, MENA, and APAC; region champions advance to one place: the SkyMasters Cup, Las Vegas. Every element is league-owned IP — the pilots, the films, the venue product, the data.

What the Seed builds
The fleet
Full-motion competition rigs, built and maintained to a repeatable standard.
The team
The operating bench that carries the league from online cycles to arena weeks.
The runway
Room to reach the first arena season without touching the standards that got us here.

How the league runs

A small crew.

Operational AI is quickly becoming a core capability for early-stage companies. SFL already runs it in production — engineered, reviewed, and measured with the same discipline that put ~75 adversarially reviewed changes into live operations in a single weekend.
