3M Company

3M supplies aerospace materials including adhesives, films, sealants and surface-protection products used in aircraft design and maintenance.

ATI Inc.

Dallas, TX, United States

Producer of technically demanding specialty materials and components for aerospace and defense, including high-performance metals and engineered products.

Dedrone

San Francisco, CA, United States

Dedrone develops counter-drone detection, tracking and mitigation technology and a command platform for protecting military, government and critical sites.

Kratos Defense & Security Solutions

San Diego, CA, United States

Kratos develops affordable defense systems including hypersonics, missile defense, satellite communications, unmanned systems and space systems.

Kratos describes capabilities in unmanned systems, propulsion and power, hypersonics, weapon systems, space, and microwave and digital technology. Its published unmanned portfolio includes the XQ-58 Valkyrie; other divisions supply different components and infrastructure. A founder's competitive or partnering analysis should identify the relevant division and deliverable before comparing Kratos with a company focused on one narrow product. Offering context reviewed October 1, 2026.

Decide whether the engagement is for a platform, component, mission-system integration or test capability. Ask which team owns delivery, which interfaces are available and what qualification evidence applies to your integration. Review the original award recipient and description when researching customers, because a company-wide contract total can combine substantially different business lines.

Leidos

Reston, VA, United States

Designs and fields maritime robotics and autonomous systems, including small unmanned surface vessels using its LAVA architecture.

Palantir Technologies

Denver, CO, United States

Palantir builds mission software and AI platforms used by defense and intelligence organizations for data integration, decision-making and operations.

Palantir describes Gotham as software for defense decision-making, with workflows for situational awareness and sensor tasking. Its published examples span operations centers and use at the edge. For a founder evaluating an integration or partnership, the relevant unit is the specific workflow and deployment environment: what data enters, what decision the operator makes, and which systems exchange the output. Offering context reviewed October 1, 2026.

Ask which product and module the engagement covers, who supplies the data connectors, and what access controls and deployment constraints apply. Define a representative workflow and measurable acceptance criteria before comparing a platform engagement with a narrow application. A contract matched to Palantir supports company-level research; read its description to establish the purchased product and scope.

Skydio

San Mateo, CA, United States

Skydio develops autonomous drones, flight software, and fleet-management tools for public-safety, infrastructure, and defense-related operations.

Skydio markets X10D for defense users. Evaluate the offered aircraft configuration together with its sensing payload, software and support package; a platform name alone does not identify everything included in a quote. Offering context reviewed September 28, 2026.

Ask which payload and software licenses are included, how deployment and training work, and what spare parts and support are available. Confirm the customer's acquisition and information-handling requirements against the exact offering rather than relying on general 'defense-ready' language.

Vannevar Labs

Washington, DC, United States

Vannevar Labs develops software and data products intended to help national-security organizations understand information and make operational decisions.

Vannevar Labs describes mission-specific AI systems and software for defense, homeland security and statecraft. Its current public material emphasizes information, intelligence and decision workflows, including use at the edge. For a founder building an adjacent application, the useful comparison concerns the supported user workflow, input data and operational environment rather than the general claim of providing defense AI. Offering context reviewed October 1, 2026.

Ask which application and mission are included, what data access the workflow needs, and how outputs are reviewed by users. Establish deployment, integration and support responsibilities and define an evaluation using representative tasks. Separate a public claim about deployments from evidence that the exact proposed application works for your organization's data and operating constraints.

VirTra

United States

VirTra's V-300 five-screen immersive simulation system prepares military teams and other public-safety professionals for split-second decisions through realistic, multi-angle mission-critical scenarios.
