FAQ

Why build a new foundry?

US defense programs are writing covered-country parts out of drones and robots, but most board capacity for them still sits overseas, and US contract manufacturers fill up with larger programs first. We are building automated US capacity for this one category of boards.

Do you have your own factory?

We're building it, with first boards planned for late 2027. Until then, your boards are built at an ITAR-registered US contract manufacturer. We name it on our first call, and you can visit it before you order.

Why not go to the contract manufacturer directly?

You can. Through us you get sourcing for hard-to-get allied parts, a check on every part, an origin record your program office can accept, and a supplier building dedicated US capacity for your boards.

How do you handle ITAR-controlled data?

Controlled data goes only to US-person staff at the contract manufacturer, under a technology control plan. Don't send controlled data or design files through this site.

Are the boards "Made in USA"?

They're built in the US. Some components come from allied countries such as Taiwan, Japan and Germany. Every part's maker and source is on the origin record.
