Strategic transformation and business segments

  • Completed a major transformation with the BlueHalo acquisition, shifting from three to two business segments: Legacy AV (uncrewed aircraft, loitering munitions, MacCready Works, UGV, UUV) and Legacy BlueHalo (Space and Directed Energy, Cyber Emission Systems).

  • BlueHalo acquisition expanded technology portfolio and market reach, especially in counter-UAS and directed energy solutions.

  • Key products include Switchblade, Red Dragon, Puma, P550, Raven, Titan, LOCUST, and the new Freedom Eagle 1 missile.

  • Counter-UAS offerings now span RF detect/defeat (Titan), directed energy (LOCUST), and missile solutions (FE1).

  • LOCUST laser system and cyber emission technologies are being fielded and tested in operational environments.

Innovation and technology development

  • MacCready Works focuses on five-year technology horizons, investing early in autonomy, AI, and computer vision for battlefield applications.

  • Red Dragon, a software-defined drone, was rapidly developed in response to real-world battlefield needs, emphasizing GPS-denied and autonomous operations.

  • Lessons from Ukraine have accelerated product iteration and technology insertion into existing lines like Switchblade and Puma.

  • Ongoing partnerships with government customers ensure alignment with future needs and rapid innovation cycles.

  • Over a dozen partnerships with startups and established firms support rapid development and fielding of new technologies.

Growth areas and market outlook

  • High growth expected in counter-UAS (Titan, LOCUST), loitering munitions (Switchblade variants, Red Dragon), and uncrewed systems (Puma, P550, JUMP 20).

  • Demand for counter-UAS solutions is expanding beyond military to critical infrastructure like airports and stadiums.

  • International demand is rising, especially in Europe and Taiwan, driven by increased defense spending and evolving security needs.

  • Anticipated 15% revenue growth, with legacy products continuing to drive both domestic and international sales.

  • Government support for drone exports and streamlined procurement could further accelerate international growth.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
