desu the aspect I'm most bullish on is their space services revenue increasing proportionally to number of satellites being launched – they're working with Microsoft to provide ground systems for Starlink, for example

the drones and lasers are cool but the boring ground systems is where the big money might be at

>two company owned Valkyrie combat drones
>twelve more in production
Can they just drone strike all the bears?

Oh wow, KTOS doesn't deserve such treatment.

KTOS is fine, it'll gain all that back the next time ARKQ buy and go even further beyond when ARKX launches and starts buying

>>28250885
> take off
KTOS has taken off few months ago and since then is unstoppable. It's company with valuable products that is growing rapidly.

This isn't even good bait.
>every drone is the same drone, Palestine has drones, even Walmart has drones, checkmate atheists
>thinks the USAF will buy Chink or Russian drones
>Russian magic jammers somehow defeating onboard AI, despite even Turkish drones shitting on Russian air defenses constantly in Syria
You're right that Syria and Azerbaijan proved the effectiveness of mass drone deployments in modern conflicts. That's bullish for KTOS. You're wrong about literally everything else.

As I informed you the last time you were pathetic enough to post this, Chang, the Chinese equivalent to Kratos is sending expendable conscript pilots up in obsolete copies of Soviet equipment like the J-7. That is the purpose of the Valkyrie drone and Air Dominance squadrons, to overwhelm China's large number of obsolete manned aircraft with cutting edge drones.

there was an anon who was literally complaining that I went a day without posting, can't please everyone

but you CAN drone strike everyone with Kratos brand tactical drones

It's up because ARKQ bought another 42,000 shares today

Mommy likes the drone stock

you'll probably want to know that the competition the Valkyrie is designed for has submissions due in May for flight testing in July. The Valkyrie has had four Air Force test flights already, the competitors haven't flown at all yet.

because I'm smug anime posting instead of doing anything useful?

just for you scoopies, I found this article on the website for Wright Patterson Airforce Base
https://www.wpafb.af.mil/News/Article-Display/Article/2064817/afrl-xq-58a-valkyrie-expands-flight-envelope-in-fourth-test/

tldr the XQ-58A Valkyrie extends it's lead over the never flown Boeing BATS and undisclosed General Atomics entry in the Loyal Wingman program

>The Air Force Research Laboratory, along with partner Kratos Defense & Security Solutions, Inc., completed the successful fourth flight test of the XQ-58A Valkyrie low-cost unmanned air vehicle demonstrator Jan. 23, 2020, at Yuma Proving Ground, Arizona.
>During the test event, the Valkyrie demonstrator’s flight successfully met all of the test objectives, and the envelope was expanded beyond prior tests before safely landing in the Arizona dessert. According to AFRL XQ-58A Program Manager Michael Wipperman, flying at higher altitude allowed researchers to gather data in an operational environment more representative of real-world flight conditions.
>Developed as part of AFRL’s Low Cost Attritable Aircraft Technology portfolio, the XQ-58A is designed to be a runway-independent, reusable unmanned air vehicle capable of a broad range of operational missions. The XQ-58A was developed through low cost procurement and is designed to be significantly less expensive to operate than traditional piloted or unpiloted vehicles, while capable of achieving the same critical missions. Taking only 2.5 years from contract award to first flight, it is the first example of a class of unmanned air vehicles developed through this time-saving process, which seeks to break the escalating cost trajectory of tactically relevant aircraft.
>A total of five flights are planned for the XQ-58A, with objectives that include evaluating system functionality, aerodynamic performance, and launch and recovery systems.

Kratos (KTOS). They're competing to supply the USAF with swarms of AI powered stealth drone fighters, and to use the same airframe to provide Ace Combat style NPC wingmen to F-35 pilots.

>Skyborg program
>swarms of AI controlled stealth fighter drones
>Loyal Wingman program
>2 drone fighters per F-35, acting like Ace Combat NOC wingmen irl
>furthest in development out of competition (BA and General Atomics)
