AEVEX Secures $41 Million Defense Contract for One-Way Attack Systems

AEVEX Corp. has been awarded a $41 million contract from U.S. government customers to deliver one-way attack systems for military operations.

The contract reflects ongoing demand for mission-focused unmanned capabilities and broadens the defense technology company’s involvement in priority operations. Under the terms of the agreement, the company will supply specialized assets and operational assistance to U.S. forces.

Roger Wells, Chief Executive Officer at AEVEX, said, “Our customers rely on AEVEX to provide precision-driven systems that can be fielded rapidly and perform reliably in complex operational conditions. This award reinforces that trust. Our one-way attack capability has been shaped by real-world missions, and we remain committed to delivering what the warfighter needs, when they need it, at scale.”

Purpose-built for contested environments, the company’s autonomous systems and mission technologies utilize a modular architecture and customer-aligned engineering framework. These technical capabilities facilitate rapid adaptation and prompt deployment across both air and maritime domains, assisting U.S. and allied defense forces in maintaining operational advantages.

To support the deployment of these unmanned assets, investments are being made in expanded manufacturing throughput, mission autonomy advancements, and field-focused design initiatives. These developments align with requirements set by the Department of War and international partners to maintain operational readiness for emerging national security priorities and next-generation defense applications.
