\nAeroVironment, Inc. (\u201cAV\u201d) (NASDAQ: AVAV), a global leader in defense technology, autonomous systems and precision strike solutions, today announced receipt of a $51 million delivery order from the United States Army for additional Switchblade\u00ae 600 Block 2 loitering munition systems.

\"Soldiers<\/p>\n

Soldiers from the U.S. Army\u2019s 25th Infantry Division launch the Switchblade\u00ae 600 during a May 2026 training exercise in the Philippines, demonstrating precision strike capability and rapid response in austere, expeditionary environments.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\nThe order was awarded under the Army\u2019s existing five-year, $990 million Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ)<\/a> contract for Lethal Unmanned Systems (LUS), originally issued in August 2024.<\/p>\n

\nThis latest award represents a follow-on procurement to the Army\u2019s initial order for the next-generation Switchblade product line and underscores the strong, sustained demand for AV\u2019s battle-proven long-range, precision loitering munitions.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cContinued investment by the U.S. Army in Switchblade 600 Block 2 reflects both the growing demand for long-range, precision loitering munitions and the proven reliability of the Switchblade family in demanding operational environments,\u201d said Brian Young, Senior Vice President of Loitering Munitions at AV. \u201cBuilding on the success of Switchblade 600 Block 1, Block 2 continues to deliver the meaningful upgrades in autonomy, resilience, and lethality tailored to the Army\u2019s needs in contested, multi-domain operations.\u201d<\/p>\n

\nThis order also reflects AV\u2019s expanding production capacity and performance on prior Switchblade 600 deliveries.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cThis new delivery order under the LUS IDIQ further validates Switchblade 600 Block 2 as a next-generation, scalable fires solution for the Army,\u201d said Young. \u201cAs we expand our manufacturing capacity and accelerate delivery timelines, we\u2019re ensuring that U.S. soldiers have reliable, combat-proven loitering munitions that deliver precision effects at range while keeping them out of harm\u2019s way.\u201d<\/p>\n

\nSince 2025, Switchblade 600 has been fielded across more than 20 brigade combat teams while hundreds of U.S. soldiers have been trained on the system\u2019s operation and employment.<\/p>\n

Switchblade 600 Block 2<\/a> is designed for multi-domain operations and ruggedized for maritime and highly contested environments. Developed in collaboration with United States Special Operations Command (SOCOM), the system incorporates upgraded avionics and advanced automatic target recognition including SPOTR AiTR, to enable faster detection, identification, and engagement of threats.<\/p>\n

\nIntegrated resilient communications, including Silvus MANET radios, support distributed operations and extended handoff ranges, while improved navigation and mission resilience allow effective employment in GPS-challenged environments. These enhancements provide commanders with increased reach, flexibility, and confidence against armored and other high-value targets.<\/p>\n
