The U.S. Navy has awarded Ursa Major $137M to develop and qualify advanced solid rocket motors for the Compact Air-to-Air Missile (CAAM) and Naval Modular Missile (NMM) programs.

“Production is the bottleneck in missile programs right now, and that’s the part we’ve been building for.” Jason Meredith, President, Ursa Major.

Leveraging our advanced manufacturing approach and growing energetics capacity, Ursa Major is accelerating the development and delivery of tactical motors designed for production at scale.

Ursa Major is going public!

We’ve entered into a definitive business combination agreement with an Inflection Point Asset Management-led S**C, bringing $350M of committed capital into the business.

Founded in 2015, we’ve spent the last 11 years building the manufacturing process, quality rigor, and discipline required for this industry, then proving those capabilities in test and flight across our portfolio.

With more than two dozen successful flights across our programs, we’re ready for this next step.

Today, Ursa Major officially opened the doors to our new manufacturing facility in Longmont, Colorado.

As our sixth location, the new site expands production capacity for avionics and in-space propulsion systems, with room for more than 125 employees and dedicated manufacturing, clean room, and environmental testing capabilities.

But this expansion is about more than square footage. Moving this work to Longmont opens additional manufacturing capacity at our Berthoud headquarters for liquid engines, vehicle integration, solid rocket motors, and all-up-round assembly, including the HAVOC Missile System.

As CEO Chris Spagnoletti put it: “We’re opening this new facility because the demand is here now.”

That urgency drives how we build at Ursa Major. We’re investing in the people, infrastructure, and advanced manufacturing capacity required to deliver critical capabilities faster and at scale.

Thank you to Governor Jared Polis, our customers, partners, local leaders, and the Ursa Major team who joined us to mark this milestone.

Behind every test, every milestone, and every successful mission are incredible people pushing Ursa Major forward.

Introducing the Ursa Major Employee Spotlight, a new series highlighting the people behind the work, the innovation, and our unified mission.

Episode 01: Maggie Mueller

As Systems & Missions Manager for Solid Rocket Motors, Maggie works directly with customers to understand the mission, define system requirements, and help shape what a motor needs to meet real-world demands. It’s all part of a team challenging what’s possible and pushing solid missile systems into a new era.

In this episode, Maggie takes us inside that work and what makes Ursa Major different.

The conversations that shape the future of defense don’t just happen in one place. That’s why you’ll find Ursa Major where industry leaders work, travel, meet, and make decisions. As our capabilities continue to support critical missions, we’re expanding our presence across the places and events that matter most.

Have you spotted Ursa Major in the wild? We’d love to hear where you’ve seen us.

The U.S. Navy has awarded Ursa Major a $10M contract to advance the company’s MK 104 design through critical design review and static fire.

The MK 104 is the dual-thrust rocket motor that powers the SM-2 and SM-6, the interceptors central to defending the fleet. And solid rocket motor production has become the biggest chokepoint in building mu*****ns at the rate the warfighter needs.

We’re building the second source that changes that with adaptable, additive-enabled, American-made manufacturing that’s built to surge with demand.

Between these walls at our Additive Manufacturing Center just outside Youngstown, Ohio, production never stops.

Purpose-built to accelerate development and production, this facility gives Ursa Major the ability to rapidly iterate designs, qualify hardware faster, and scale manufacturing to meet growing demand. With machines running 24 hours a day, we’re compressing timelines from design to production while increasing the throughput needed to deliver critical missile systems at speed.

By combining advanced additive manufacturing with a mission-focused workforce, we’re accelerating production, strengthening the defense industrial base, and delivering the speed, scale, and resilience required for today and tomorrow’s missions.
