Amentum’s Autonomous and Unmanned Systems Business and WaveAerospace Announce Strategic Partnership

CHANTILLY, VA; September 16, 2024 - Amentum, a leading global technical and engineering solutions partner, is pleased to announce a strategic partnership with WaveAerospace, a pioneering developer of advanced aerospace technology, and our Autonomous and Unmanned Systems business. This collaboration is set to accelerate the development and commercialization of WaveAerospace's cutting-edge aircraft technology, providing unparalleled integration and support services to global commercial and government clients.

Amentum's Autonomous and Unmanned Systems business will provide advanced integration, technology guidance, and global support for deployment of WaveAerospace's class-defining electric, hybrid, and turbojet uncrewed aircraft.

The partnership will focus on joint discussions and actions aimed at enhancing and deploying WaveAerospace's innovative FalconTM, HuntressTM, and MULETM Class aircraft. Under this agreement, Amentum will collaborate with WaveAerospace on products and software deployment, providing integration, upgrades, operations and maintenance, remote pilot services, and logistics support post-sale.

Amentum will serve as the prime contractor where applicable, ensuring seamless platform integration for its customers and offering guidance and recommendations on system-level technology and mission-specific payloads.

"The depth and breadth of WaveAerospace's product line are second to none. Their ability to fly in wind and weather that ground other aircraft and at speeds in excess of 300 knots is a massive differentiator in today's market. Whether missions are BVLOS reconnaissance (including RIF), communications, tactical and contested logistics, or airspace denial, WaveAerospace aircraft fly day or night," said Art Boghozian, Director of Business Development for UAS/cUAS at Amentum.

About WaveAerospace, Inc.

WaveAerospace is a United States aerospace manufacturer of midsize uncrewed electric and hybrid aircraft built to fly safely and reliably in any weather. Our mission is to provide uncrewed aerial systems that can be counted on in the most severe, life-threatening environmental conditions when existing aircraft cannot safely operate. Built to military specifications for reconnaissance (C3ISR, RIF), contested logistics, and search & rescue, we fly day or night when you need us most-during the storm, not after. Designed for true VTOL operations on land and sea, WaveAerospace's Falcon, M.U.L.E., and Huntress Turbojet rotorcraft can reliably operate in zero visibility, up to Force 10 ocean conditions. WaveAerospace was recently selected to participate in AEWE2025 and SMEx25.
