AV Expands Huntsville Facility to Accelerate Production of Next-Generation Freedom Eagle-1 Interceptor<\/b><\/p>\n

Facility expansion positions AV to scale production, accelerate fielding, and provide cost-effective defense against mass aerial threats<\/i><\/p>\n

ARLINGTON, Va.–(BUSINESS WIRE<\/a>)–
\nAeroVironment, Inc. (\u201cAV\u201d) (NASDAQ: AVAV), a global defense technology leader, today announced an additional government investment of $20.2 million in AV’s Huntsville, Alabama facility to increase quantities of Low-Rate Initial Production (LRIP) and accelerate future Full-Rate Production (FRP) of the Next-Generation Counter-Unmanned Aircraft System Missile (NGCM), known as Freedom Eagle-1 (FE-1).<\/p>\n

\nThe expanded site will serve as the system-level integration, manufacturing, and production hub for FE-1, enabling rapid scale-up of interceptor production and accelerated delivery timelines to meet urgent U.S. Army and Combatant Command operational needs.<\/p>\n

\nThe 24,000-square-foot expansion and associated job growth in Huntsville reflect AV\u2019s continued investment in meeting evolving national security demands for subsonic missiles while strengthening cost-effective production capacity, driving innovation, and supporting on-time delivery.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cGrowing our presence in Huntsville places AV more firmly at the center of the Army\u2019s air and missile defense ecosystem, enabling tighter integration, faster iteration, and more efficient production at scale,\u201d said Wahid Nawabi, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer at AV. \u201cThat proximity is critical as we begin production of Freedom Eagle-1, a system designed to deliver a scalable, cost-effective response to increasingly complex and high-volume aerial threats.\u201d<\/p>\n

\nThe investment builds on AV\u2019s recent selection and $95.9 million contract award<\/a> under the U.S. Army\u2019s NGCM and Long-Range Kinetic Interceptor (LRKI) programs, executed through the U.S. Army Combat Capabilities Development Command Aviation & Missile Center (CCDC AvMC) and the Aviation & Missile Technology Consortium (AMTC), and marks the next phase in transitioning Freedom Eagle-1 from development to scaled production and operational fielding.<\/p>\n

\nIn March, AV announced a $97 million contract<\/a> to design and integrate prototype test environments for next-generation missile defense sensor testing at Redstone Arsenal \u2014 a Huntsville-based federal center that is home to more than 70 organizations, including NASA, the FBI, Missile Defense Agency, Army Program Acquisition Executive Fires, and the future U.S. Space Command headquarters.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cThis expansion is a critical step in scaling production of Freedom Eagle-1 and accelerating its delivery to the field,\u201d said Jimmy Jenkins, Executive Vice President of AV\u2019s Precision Strike and Defense Systems Group. \u201cBy increasing manufacturing capacity, strengthening integration, and enabling production at volume, we\u2019re delivering a cost-effective interceptor designed to counter increasingly complex and high-volume aerial threats.\u201d<\/p>\n

Freedom Eagle-1<\/a> is designed to address these challenges with a combination of performance and affordability. The system is a low-cost, high-performance interceptor capable of neutralizing Groups 2 and 3 UAS while maintaining residual capability against Group 1 UAS, fixed-wing, and rotary-wing aircraft, with increased lethality, extended range, and rapid launch capabilities.<\/p>\n

\nThe system has achieved several key development milestones, including a successful live-fire demonstration<\/a> of its dual-thrust solid rocket motor, controlled test vehicle launches, and warhead testing, demonstrating technical maturity and reduced risk as the program transitions toward field deployment.<\/p>\n

\n“As the nation\u2019s defense and security demands increase, it is crucial that we meet capability needs, and there is no better place for AV\u2019s expansion as Alabama continues to lead in defense manufacturing and innovation,” said Congressman Robert Aderholt (AL-04).<\/p>\n

\nThe expansion in Huntsville also reflects AV\u2019s broader strategy to scale domestic manufacturing capacity, following a recent announcement of a $30 million expansion<\/a> of its Albuquerque, New Mexico campus, a move that is expected to generate more than $670 million in economic impact over the next decade, create more than 450 high-wage jobs, and boost production of mission-critical defense and space technologies.<\/p>\n
