01 · Why now

The drone war is a production war. America needs the factory.

Attritable systems are consumed in volume. The side that can build, learn and rebuild fastest holds the advantage.

Policy

Federal procurement is shifting toward secure, U.S.-aligned unmanned systems.

Federal rules restrict the purchase and funded operation of certain UAS made by covered foreign entities, increasing the importance of U.S.-based manufacturing and trusted supply chains.

Trade

Tariffs now price imported UAS and parts.

Section 232 UAS tariffs took effect in September 2026. Domestic content is now a cost advantage, not only a compliance line.

Doctrine

Mass beats exquisite when both sides can see.

Low-cost aircraft in volume change the cost exchange. Winning takes a factory that scales on demand.

02 · The platform

A factory that learns from every build.

DarkMoth is building disciplined production feedback loops across tooling, composites, machining, assembly and test, so each production cycle can inform the next.

  1. 01

    Design

    Modular airframes, digital engineering and production planning.

  2. 02

    Machine & print

    CNC machining and additive manufacturing create tooling, fixtures and mold components.

  3. 03

    Mold

    Tooling and molds support thermoset and thermoplastic composite production.

  4. 04

    Press & cure

    Composite materials are formed and cured using the appropriate production process.

  5. 05

    Post-process & assemble

    Robotics-supported post-processing, finishing, integration and final assembly.

  6. 06

    Test & improve

    Manufacturing and test feedback inform future process improvements.

The Loom

Advanced composite molding in thermosets and thermoplastics. Operational today.

  • Composite molding

    Thermoset and thermoplastic airframes, in-house mold making.

  • 5-axis machining

    Tooling, fittings and engine parts cut in-house.

  • Metal additive

    Nickel superalloy, titanium and aluminum, printed on site.

  • Polymer additive

    Jigs, fixtures, mold masters and production housings.

How we run

Capacity built ahead of demand.

We invest in facilities, tooling and production readiness to support faster execution when programs move forward.

04 · The fleet

Platforms in development

DarkMoth is developing modular unmanned-system platforms and components designed for evolving mission requirements. Detailed specifications and program information are available through qualified customer engagement.
