Redwire receives $20M Navy orders for Stalker drone systems

Redwire Corporation (NYSE: RDW) received purchase orders totaling over $20 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 2026 from the Navy and Marine Corps Small Tactical Unmanned Aircraft Systems Program Office, according to a company statement.

The orders include the Marine Corps' first acquisition of Redwire's Advanced Navigation version of the Stalker Block 30 uncrewed aerial system. These systems will join approximately 250 existing Stalker aircraft already deployed by the Marine Corps.

Each Advanced Navigation system includes air vehicles, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance camera payloads, ground control stations with short, medium and long-range capabilities, and support kits.

"Advanced Navigation is critical for long-range reconnaissance missions where drones must operate in contested, GPS-denied environments over vast distances," said Steve Adlich, President of Redwire Defense Tech.

The Advanced Navigation Stalker systems are designed to operate in contested electronic warfare environments and provide enhanced situational awareness, improved target tracking and operational flexibility for intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance missions.

The procurement was completed through the Defense Logistics Agency Tailored Logistics Support contract, an indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity multiaward contract. Atlantic Diving Supply served as the prime contractor for this award.

Redwire Corporation operates as an integrated space and defense technology company with approximately 1,400 employees located throughout North America and Europe.
