Great engineering gets tested in the field. This time last year, our team drove out to the Mojave desert as part of a growing series of flight tests. Since then, we've only picked up the pace. If you want more time on hardware than most roles will ever give you, this is the mission. castelion.com/careers/

Could the U.S. run of out weapons in wartime? It's a question that most civilians - living outside of the Silicon Valley defense compact - haven't yet confronted, until now. I spoke with the founders of @Castelion — who, amid a hot war with Iran and a rising China, are building the weapons missing from our arsenal, and reshoring America's manufacturing might along the way.

Peace Through Deterrence doesn't happen on its own. It has to be built. At @Castelion, we're building long-range hypersonic strike systems designed for the speed and scale modern deterrence requires. That capability takes real work. It's what our team shows up to do every day. Join us: castelion.com/careers/

At the @TectonicDefense Summit, @Castelion Co-Founder & CFO Andrew Kreitz on the urgency of hypersonic development: "This is a dead sprint to scale. The only way we are going to be able to deter a conflict is by moving fast enough to provide a conventional deterrent in time."

"Blackbeard is our first product … That is a medium-range strike weapon. I think that what's really exciting about it is we are designing it to be low cost, highly manufacturable … It isn't just capability, it's quantity." — Andrew Kreitz, @Castelion Co-Founder & CFO

The @USNavy has awarded @Castelion a contract to advance Blackbeard from prototype to an integrated, early operational capability by 2027. This effort reflects the Navy’s leadership in pursuing new approaches to move capability to the fleet faster while maintaining operational rigor. We’re proud to partner with them on it. Strengthening deterrence requires not just advanced technology, but the ability to field systems affordably, at scale, and on timelines aligned with operational need. We appreciate the trust placed in our team by the @DeptofWar and remain focused on delivering capability that supports the Warfighter and reinforces American deterrence. war.gov/News/Contracts…
