Kratos Defense & Security Systems and AeroVironment have partnered to develop an integrated multidomain unmanned aerial system designed for near-peer, denied environment operations.

Kratos Defense & Security Solutions has introduced its first unmanned aerial target platform manufactured at the company's new production facility in Oklahoma City.

Krato Defense & Security Solutions has become a founding member of a sector-specific membership organization that aims to help the federal government gather, analyze and distribute information about potential threats to space-based assets.

A Kratos Defense and Security Solutions subsidiary created and demonstrated a communications system prototype with the goal to help military users communicate via multiple satellites without undergoing network reconfiguration, C4ISRNET reported Friday.

A subsonic unmanned air vehicle, developed by the Air Force Research Laboratory and Kratos Defense and Security Solutions, took its maiden flight Tuesday at Yuma Proving Grounds in Arizona.

Kratos Defense and Security Solutions will collaborate with Corvid Technologies to help the U.S. Navy build test targets for the Ballistic Missile Defense System under a potential five-year, $223M contract.

A subsonic aerial target system Kratos Defense and Security Solutions built for the U.S. Navy has reached initial operational capability status.

Jeff Herro, senior vice president for business development at Kratos Defense and Security Solutions, said the company expects to conduct the initial flight test of its unmanned “loyal wingman” combat jet in the first week of March, Reuters reported Thursday.

The U.S. Navy has tested the ballistic missile defense of a new anti-air radar with the support of Kratos Defense and Security Solutions. The AN/SPY-6(V)1 air and missile defense radar detected and tracked a ballistic target during the Vigilant Nemesis test on Jan. 31, the company said Tuesday.

Kratos Defense and Security Solutions subsidiary Kratos RT Logic has developed a prototype network management system called the Enterprise Management and Control system, which allows military users to switch or "roam" from one satellite communications network to another. Kratos said in a press release on Monday that the demo featured a satcom terminal commonly deployed by the U.S. government as well as other hardware configured in a way that mirrors the typical government setup.

Kratos Defense and Security Solutions facilitated an on-orbit spacecraft demonstration based on previous pathfinder studies to migrate a consolidated command and control system to a new architecture. The demonstration leveraged the U.S. Air Force's Enterprise Ground Services framework utilizing the CCS-C ground system, the company said Wednesday.

Industry executives at the 2018 Kratos Global Users Conference discussed some of the trends in the satellite telecommunications sector and cited the need for companies to adapt to such trends to thrive, Via Satellite reported Monday. Some of the trends discussed include the drop in bandwidth prices and commoditization of satellite hardware.
