Stratolaunch said it has completed a significant capital raise to accelerate growth and welcomed Elliott Investment as a new partner alongside existing investor Cerberus Capital.
This funding will expand the company's hypersonic production and flight capabilities as a member of the American defense industrial base.
Stratolaunch is a hypersonics technology accelerator that designed and developed the first and only commercial, autonomous, reusable hypersonic aircraft with multiple successful flights. Its product and service offerings include vehicle design, manufacturing, flight testing, digital modeling, and operations.
The capital will be used to increase production capacity of hypersonic vehicles, increase flight cadence, and pursue additional carrier aircraft, enabling more frequent and operationally relevant demonstrations for the Department of War and its partners.
The investment aligns with the Administration's call for defense contractors to prioritize the warfighter, eliminate barriers to fielding capability, and strengthen the domestic industrial base through speed and execution.
