The other mid-tier U.S. supplier of uncrewed aircraft and space/electronic-warfare systems, bidding for the same Pentagon unmanned and autonomy budgets rather than for prime-contractor platform work.
Named in Kratos' 10-K among the tier-one primes it competes against for uncrewed aircraft, space and C5ISR programs, even though the two also team up on the Marine Corps CCA.
Named in Kratos' 10-K as a tier-two competitor: both sell microwave electronics and RF subsystems to the primes that build missiles, radars and satellite ground systems.
Both build jet-powered uncrewed combat aircraft for the U.S. Air Force and allied air forces, and competed head-to-head in the Skyborg and Collaborative Combat Aircraft programs.
Named by Kratos in its 10-K among the newer defense technology firms it competes with, and its YFQ-44 Fury goes after the same drone-wingman contracts as the XQ-58 Valkyrie.
Listed as a competitor in Kratos' 10-K and the main rival in aerial target drones, selling the Banshee family to the same U.S. and allied test ranges that buy the BQM-167 and Firejet.
