This signals sustained team expansion aligned to core R&D build-out.
  • Innovation-Driven Growth: Recent Navy and DARPA awards and follow-on phases in 2024–2026 are expanding funded work into AI/ML, sensing, cyber/EW, and mission software through 2026. Such momentum reflects capability acceleration typical of growth-stage defense innovators.
