Kratos Defense Breaks Ground on New Facilities for AN/SPY-1 Radar and Helios Hypersonics in Indiana
Kratos Defense & Security Solutions (KTOS) recently broke ground on two new facilities in Odon, Indiana. The first is dedicated to the production of the AN/SPY-1 radar system, while the second will support testing for its Helios hypersonic technology program. These developments are supported by $35 million in funding from the Department of Defense and cost-sharing contributions from Kratos itself. The new facilities aim to enhance domestic defense capabilities and reduce reliance on foreign manufacturing sources. The AN/SPY-1 radar is a critical component for naval air and missile defense systems, while Helios represents an emerging focus area within hypersonic weapons development in the U.S. military sector.
