As the U.S. -developed platform advanced from early prototype to production, Blue Ops prioritized U.S.-made and NDAA-compliant components across its navigation, control, marine hardware and perception systems, reflecting its commitment to domestic research and development, manufacturing, trusted supply chains and scalable production.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBlue Ops is moving Variant 7 into full-rate production because the mission demand is here now,\u201d said Barry Hinckley, President of Blue Ops. \u201cThis platform brings together U.S. boatbuilding expertise, a modern tech stack that was designed and developed domestically, and a defense-ready supply chain for customers who cannot compromise on origin, reliability, or adaptability. We designed Variant 7 to be built at scale and configured for the missions our customers face.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The production launch builds on more than 250 years of U.S. maritime excellence, from the shipyards and seafaring traditions that helped establish the United States as a global maritime power to the modern defense industrial base now shaping autonomous systems. V7 is designed in Maine, manufactured in both Maine and Valdosta, Georgia, and supported by extensive research, development and testing in West Palm Beach, Florida. Blue Ops\u2019 prototype work was supported by Hodgdon Shipbuilding, the oldest continuously operated shipbuilder in America, and reflects the Hinckley Yacht family\u2019s 98-year legacy as premier quality boatbuilders.<\/p>\n<p>Engineered for real-world maritime operations, V7 is designed for sea state endurance, maintainability, survivability, operational simplicity, and long-term mission reliability. The platform supports missions including intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance; force protection; harbor and coastal security; contested logistics; and payload-adaptable operations for U.S. and allied forces.<\/p>\n<p>V7 is built around Modular Open Systems Architecture (\u201cMOSA\u201d) principles, enabling customers to configure payloads, sensors, communications, and mission systems based on operational requirements. The platform is designed to integrate with leading U.S. technology and manufacturing partners, including Allen Control Systems, Quaze, Kymeta, HADDY and other U.S. and allied defense technology providers, giving customers flexibility while preserving supply chain integrity.<\/p>\n<p>Blue Ops\u2019 autonomy roadmap is further strengthened by Red Cat\u2019s acquisition of Apium Swarm Robotics, a California-based developer of distributed control systems for autonomous swarming drones and USVs. Apium will continue developing its multi-agent autonomy architecture for integration with the V7 and Red Cat\u2019s Family of Systems, supporting coordinated operations across air, land, and sea.<\/p>\n<p>The move into full-rate production comes as federal policy increasingly prioritizes the revitalization of the U.S. maritime industrial base and the rapid fielding of autonomous systems across multiple domains. V7 adds a maritime platform to Red Cat\u2019s Family of Systems, expanding the Company\u2019s ability to deliver modular, mission-adaptable robotic capabilities aligned with White House maritime industrial priorities and the Department of Defense\u2019s demand for scalable autonomous systems.<\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>About Red Cat Holdings, Inc.<\/strong><br \/>\n        <br \/>Red Cat (Nasdaq: RCAT) is a U.S.-based provider of advanced all-domain drone and robotic solutions for defense and national security.
