Kratos Defense & Security Solutions opened a new 167,000-square-foot advanced manufacturing facility in York, Pennsylvania. The facility aims to meet rising demand for its defense systems. This marks the company's third plant in Pennsylvania. Kratos now employs over 440 people in the state.
Kratos also plans to invest over $7 million in new state-of-the-art equipment. This investment aims to further boost production capacity. The expansion will accelerate large-scale manufacturing of hardware for critical U.S. national security programs. These programs include air defense, missile systems, radar, and counter-unmanned aircraft systems.
