Honeywell is set to enhance its defense technology capabilities with the acquisition of CAES Systems Holdings LLC for $1.9 billion. This move strengthens Honeywell’s offerings across land, sea, air, and space, integrating CAES’ advanced radio frequency solutions into Honeywell’s portfolio. The acquisition is expected to bolster Honeywell’s presence on critical defense platforms like the F-35 and EA-18G, while also opening new opportunities with technologies like Navy Radar and counter-unmanned aerial systems. With the addition of CAES’ 2,200 employees and facilities, Honeywell aims to drive significant growth and innovation in the defense sector.
Contract Opportunities to Watch: Redwire
Redwire Corporation has secured a contract from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) to spearhead the development of a groundbreaking air-breathing satellite. Using Redwire’s SabreSat VLEO platform, this satellite will demonstrate novel electric propulsion systems in very low-Earth orbit (VLEO). As VLEO gains importance for national security missions due to its relatively uncontested environment, Redwire’s investment in this domain marks a key advancement. The SabreSat “orbital drone” promises to enhance capabilities in high-resolution intelligence, resilient communications, and Earth science payloads.
