L3Harris Technologies company Aerojet Rocketdyne has signed a 10-year public-private partnership agreement with the Naval Surface Warfare Center Indian Head Division to increase solid rocket motor production for national defense applications.

“Working in coordination with our government partners, we’re increasing our production capability to meet today’s growing demand and to prepare for any surge in support of near peer conflicts,” Ross Niebergall, president of Aerojet Rocketdyne, said in a statement published Monday.

Capt. Steve Duba, commanding officer of NSWC IHD, said the agreement highlights the division’s commitment to supplying “warfighters with the best weapons, tools and equipment needed to win the fight and bring them home safely.”

Aerojet Rocketdyne provides advanced propulsion and power systems for rockets, space vehicles and air defense missiles in support of U.S. defense and national security missions.

In November 2023, the company opened a 5,200-square-foot laboratory space at its Camden, Arkansas, site to expand its solid rocket motor materials chemical testing capabilities.
