X-Bow to Receive Additional Funding for Expansion of DoD Contract for Hypersonic Solid Rocket Motor Development

The increase is an addition to the $64 million awarded to X-Bow in 2023 to expand production capacity of the solid rocket motor industrial base. It's an expansion of its contract to provide large solid rocket motors (SRM) to the U.S. Navy and the U.S. Army. This increase reinforces X-Bow as a new supplier of SRMs and strengthens the Defense Department supply chain in a critical period for the United States.

This increase will bolster U.S. defense readiness by expanding production capacity and strengthening the domestic supply chain. (Source: X-Bow)
