Kratos Defense & Security Solutions is adding over 100,000 square feet to its Oklahoma City manufacturing campus. The expansion responds to rising demand from the U.S. military and allied nations for unmanned jet-powered drone systems.
The increased capacity will accelerate production of the Valkyrie collaborative combat aircraft. The facility will also scale output for the Firejet and Mighty Hornet IV aerial target systems.
Kratos currently produces approximately 165 jet drones annually. This investment aims to scale that production volume significantly to strengthen the U.S. defense industrial base.
