Built to perform under pressure. We recently conducted our fourth inflatable habitat burst test and this time with a new feature, a penetration plate that could serve as a window or hatch. The result, a burst pressure of 267 psi, more than five times its design pressure, proving the strength and resilience of inflatable habitat technology that could support future astronauts on the Moon and beyond.

Picture this: It’s the middle of the night at a forward operating base. The perimeter is quiet...or so it seems. A coordinated swarm of small drones approaches, silent, precise and relentless—undetectable by traditional defenses. This is the operational reality forces face today. Integrated counter-UAS solutions like Sanctum™ are built to meet it head-on. Read how: https://lmt.co/4ogsxQo

From factory floor to final frontier — and faster than ever! Yesterday, the 21 Tranche 1 Transport Layer satellites we built as part of the Space Development Agency's Proliferated Warfighter Space Architecture mission launched. Built at our Small Satellite Processing & Delivery Center using digital engineering and automation, these satellites demonstrate how innovation and agility are redefining space-based defense.

Preparing the next generation of US Army aviators is much more than a pilot training program. 🚁 Army aviators face challenges unlike anything seen by their civilian counterparts. Their development requires a rigorous modern training system designed to prepare them for any mission, in any environment and delivered by an experienced and knowledgeable integrator. With our proven, student-centric Turnkey Training approach, we are ready to be on point for the U.S. Army Flight School Next program. Read how: https://lmt.co/47qMrCz #FlightSchoolNext #ArmyAviation

Today, we signed an MOU with Diehl Defence to explore expansion of the global supply chain for the PAC‑3 Missile Segment Enhancement (MSE). To meet the increased demand for PAC-3 MSE – a cornerstone of U.S. and European air and missile defense – this collaboration will enhance allied supply chain resilience and benefit both sides of the Atlantic. This signing represents the importance of strategic collaboration with a leading European defense industry partner to meet evolving security needs and NATO commitments.

Milestone unlocked: The JAGM Quad Launcher (JQL) just pulled off its first ground test—launching a missile at a 45° angle and hitting a stationary target straight on. Live data from ignition to impact showed the system can adapt quickly for a variety of missions. See how we are driving the next wave of vertical‑launch capability, giving today’s forces the edge they need: https://lmt.co/43iBr7P
