Strong Execution: Recent actions such as licensing the 40‑nm GaN‑on‑SiC T3L process for external manufacturing and advancing to MRL‑6 demonstrate a lab‑to‑production pathway. Facility expansion in Camarillo to strengthen the U.S. infrared hardware supply chain further ties strategy to tangible capacity.
