Successfully integrated and validated systems across a complex, multi-partner ground architecture

SAN DIEGO, Feb. 26, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Kratos Defense & Security Solutions, Inc. (Nasdaq: KTOS), a technology company in Defense, National Security and Global Markets, has successfully completed the Critical Design Review (CDR) for the Space Development Agency’s Advanced Fire Control Ground Infrastructure (AFCGI) system. Kratos’ completion of the CDR with zero liens allows the program to continue an accelerated schedule and remain aligned with anticipated launch dates.

Kratos completed the AFCGI CDR only eight months after the program’s Preliminary Design Review, which itself was finished in just five months from contract award, underscoring the company’s ability to advance complex systems on a rapid timeline.

In 2024 Kratos was awarded a $116.7 million prime contract for the Advanced Fire Control Ground Infrastructure (AFCGI) program. AFCGI integrates advanced software, resilient ground systems and secure networks into a unified, operational cloud architecture supporting real-time fire control missions. The system delivers immediate, mission-relevant advantages to the warfighter. Achieving zero liens at CDR confirms that key technical risks, design challenges and open items have been fully resolved, enabling the program to proceed into implementation without material constraints.

Research News and Market Data on KTOS

February 23, 2026

PDF VersionJoint team will complete preliminary design of the GEK1500 engine to meet high performance and aggressive cost targets, leveraging GEK800 maturation to accelerate delivery

SAN DIEGO, Feb. 23, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Kratos Defense & Security Solutions, Inc. (NASDAQ: KTOS), a leader in defense, national security and global markets, and GE Aerospace (NYSE: GE), today announced a joint U.S. Air Force contract for $12.4M to design a next generation engine for small Collaborative Combat Aircraft (CCA). The initial phase of the program will complete the preliminary design of the GEK1500 engine to meet demanding performance requirements while achieving aggressive cost targets for affordable mass.

Stacey Rock, President of Kratos Turbine Technologies Division, said, “Building on the success of our GEK800 engine program, the development of the GEK1500 further demonstrates our team’s ability and commitment to deliver high-performance, affordable, jet engines that can be rapidly produced to meet the demands of our defense customers.”

“Lessons learned from recent GEK800 altitude testing are directly informing GEK1500 —improving thrust, power generation, and lifecycle cost — so we can meet CCA requirements without compromising affordability or schedule,” said Steve “Doogie” Russell, Vice President and General Manager of Edison Works at GE Aerospace.

The GEK1500 is a 1,500-lb thrust jet engine that could potentially power unmanned aerial systems (UAS), collaborative combat aircraft (CCAs), and missiles. The design of the GEK1500 leverages the GEK800 cruise missile engine architecture which is successfully completing technical maturation. An additional option on the contract, if exercised, would enable the team to assess key design risks and characterize engine performance under relevant flight and installation conditions for the GEK1500 engine. The Air Force has prioritized the development of high performing and low-cost engines to enable the disruptive capabilities of small CCAs.

Recent altitude testing of the GEK800 engine demonstrated critical technologies that will provide future systems increased range, increased thrust, decreased life cycle cost, and increased electrical power. The investments and progress made to date on the GEK800 will reduce the cost and schedule timelines for the GEK1500 and provide enhanced performance for small CCAs.

In June, Kratos and GE Aerospace announced the signing of a formal teaming agreement to advance propulsion technologies for the next generation of affordable unmanned aerial systems and CCA-type aircraft, covering the GEK800 and a framework for partnering on additional engines. The result is another formal teaming agreement covering the GEK1500. This collaboration strengthens the companies’ ongoing partnership and builds on a 2024 Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to advance the development and production of small, cost-effective engines for unmanned platforms. The teaming agreement expanded on that MOU and provided the framework for the two companies to develop, manufacture, test, and field the GEK800 and additional GEK engines in higher thrust classes.

Kratos brings more than 25 years of experience developing and producing small, affordable engines for UAS, drones, and missile platforms. GE Aerospace adds a century of expertise in propulsion technology and the ability to scale advanced designs into high-rate production, helping bridge the gap from prototype to deployment.

Building on our successful collaboration across multiple OneSat programs, Kratos will deliver the ground system that works in tandem with the OmanSat-1 satellite, enabling SCT to provide high-throughput services while providing extensive flexibility, serving Oman and the region and expanding to access East African and East Asian markets.”

Reinforcing the need for satellites and ground systems to escape legacy silos and work together in tandem, Luke Wyles, an analyst with Analysys Mason explained in a recent white paper that “in order to optimize the resource allocation on the Software-Defined Satellite (SDS), the network must be orchestrated, reconfiguring the space and ground segment in unison to meet changing demands.”

Bruno Dupas, Vice President of Kratos Space, said, “Kratos is integrating the ground system with Airbus’ mission and control platform to manage and monitor the satellite payload while intelligently orchestrating ground resources. This will enable SCT to dynamically plan spectrum, seamlessly coordinate payload configurations with ground assets, and do so far faster and in a more automated fashion than ever before.”

Kratos will deliver the ground segment that will include the capability to configure and monitor the satellite, optimize and setup the payload using integrated Airbus components, monitor the performance of the entire system from the satellite to the ground and orchestrate part of the operations. The implementation will include Ka-Band telemetry, tracking and command (TT&C) antennas, monitor and control and carrier monitoring software, command, control and flight dynamics capabilities and the orchestration system. Leveraging its office in Oman, Kratos will also perform site surveys, install and commission equipment, deliver training and provide support for the delivery.

Kratos has a proven track record of delivering state-of-the-art ground solutions and is at the forefront of developing new capabilities to support today’s software-defined satellites. This includes the recent successful completion of the first factory acceptance test of Kratos’ Epoch command and control (C2) system with Airbus’ OneSat software-defined satellite. Kratos also brings a breadth of experience across the ground segment in areas such as satellite C2; TT&C; payload operations; network management and spectrum monitoring to deliver integrated satellite and ground system solutions.

ATLANTA, Feb. 09, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — DLH Holdings Corp. (NASDAQ: DLHC) (“DLH” or the “Company”), a leading provider of digital transformation and cybersecurity, systems engineering and integration, and science research and development, today announced financial results for its fiscal first quarter ended December 31, 2025.

Q1 Highlights:

  • Revenue variance from prior year period reflects the transition of certain programs to small-business set-aside contractors
  • Adjusted EBITDA of $6.5 million, or 9.5% of revenue, benefitting from the Company’s initiatives to reduce costs and streamline operations
  • Operating cash usage of $4.8 million, reflecting normal first quarter patterns and working capital use; an improvement of almost $7 million year-over-year
  • Debt rose modestly due to short-term working capital needs; Company remains on track for further delevering during fiscal 2026

Management Discussion:

“The first quarter of fiscal 2026 demonstrated our resilience and disciplined commitment to managing profitability and cash flow through a period of transition,” said Zach Parker, DLH President and Chief Executive Officer. “As previously communicated, our revenue results reflect the anticipated transition of legacy programs to small business contractors. In recognition of our revenue volumes, we have rightsized our cost structure during the first and second quarters. The impact of the first quarter cost scaling initiatives is reflected in Adjusted EBITDA. At the completion of these actions, we believe we will have aligned expense with revenue volumes, restored margins to a competitive level and protected strategic investments that fuel organic growth. Additionally, we remain focused on delevering our balance sheet. While debt grew this quarter in line with first quarter trends, going forward we expect to deploy operating cash flow toward reducing debt levels to enhance our long-term financial flexibility and shareholder value.”

Ultimate Objective is High Quantity Fleet of Mighty Hornet IV Systems Ready in Taiwan – Affordable Mass

SAN DIEGO, Feb. 05, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Kratos Defense & Security Solutions, Inc. (NASDAQ: KTOS), a leader in defense, national security and global markets, and the National Chung-Shan Institute of Science and Technology (NCSIST) today announced the successful test of the integrated Mighty Hornet IV Attack UAV, a revolutionary transformation of the MQM-178 Firejet target drone.

Following the months of planning, design, and subsystem tests in their respective facilities, the team successfully tested and validated the NCSIST-provided payload/mission system to confirm its operational capability with the Mighty Hornet IV aircraft without revisions to the design. This milestone established the baseline for flight testing later this year, for which the NCSIST technical team traveled to Kratos’ Oklahoma City design and production facility to finalize the requirement set and design this week.

Steve Fendley, President of Kratos Unmanned Systems Division, said, “The success of this testing by the two organizations represents a significant milestone which enables progression to flight testing. It validates the technical approach, and possibly even more significantly, validates the value of collaborative effort of the technical organizations working together to realize the new system. This is a springboard for not only the Mighty Hornet IV effort, but also potential additional collaborative efforts with other Kratos aircraft and NCSIST systems and technologies.”

The modified MQM-178’s high-speed capabilities, including a speed of Mach 0.8, high G maneuvering, and a service ceiling of greater than 35,000 feet, make it an ideal base platform for this transformation. The Mighty Hornet IV not only embodies cutting-edge technology but also benefits from proven performance in collaborative exercises. Recent demonstrations showcased the MQM-178’s reliability and adaptability, reinforcing its role in Manned-Unmanned Teaming (MUM-T) and loitering munition scenarios and validating its impressive flight characteristics.

Ultimately, the objective is to have a large quantity of Mighty Hornet IV systems in Taiwan, delivering affordable mass, both as a deterrent, and ready for operational deployment. The collaboration and combination of the U.S. baseline uncrewed aircraft system, the Kratos Firejet, with the Taiwan NCSIST payload marks the collaboration between the two nations and organizations. By taking advantage of mature Kratos technologies, the timeline from concept to functional system has been unconventionally short; establishing this strategy as a key enabler for realization of practical near term tactical UAS and affordable mass.
