HQ

San Diego

X-BAT airframe, propulsion, mission systems, GNC, and the core Hivemind autonomy stack are built here, minutes from the Pacific and the naval air stations that shaped the mission. If you design flight-critical hardware or write autonomy software, most of that work is here, on-site.

Arlington

Affectionately referred to as "the Eagle's Wing," our DC office features sweeping views of the nation's capital with world-class museums, award-winning restaurants, and key metro stops within walking distance.

Frisco

This is where aircraft become real at rate. V-BAT production, X-BAT manufacturing build-out, fleet sustainment, air-vehicle-operator training, and flight test run out of North Texas, on a modern line. If you build, fly, or sustain aircraft, this is your hub.
