Investor Backing & Capital Strength:
Funding includes a $260M Series C (April 2025) and a $650M Series D (April 2026) at a reported ~$2.2B valuation, providing substantial resources to scale. Company statements indicate this capital is aimed at accelerating products, facilities, and hiring.
Strong Hiring & Retention:
Headcount is targeted to grow from roughly 250 at year‑end 2025 to 500+ by year‑end 2026, with a longer‑term goal of 1,000 by 2028. Facility expansion, including a 90,000‑sq‑ft Long Beach campus, is positioned to support the hiring ramp and larger‑scale production.
Strategic Partnerships:
Engagement with the U.S. Space Force includes selection for the Space‑Based Interceptor effort, participation on the Andromeda GEO SDA vehicle, and operations on the VICTUS HAZE mission. These relationships open pathways to significant programs and sustained on‑orbit activity.
