Archer Aviation is sitting on $1.5 billion in cash and has backing from United Airlines, but they are still working through FAA certifications. Their timeline has slipped and analysts don't expect them to be profitable until 2029. Rocket Lab looks like the better near-term play. They are already launching missions and are on track for around $600 million in revenue this year. With the Neutron rocket coming online, analysts think they could hit profitability by 2027 without needing to sell more stock.
