Defense startup Hadrian, headquartered in Los Angeles, has secured $260 million in new capital to scale its AI-powered manufacturing capabilities across facilities in Arizona and California.
The funds will be used to build extensive factory infrastructure, equivalent to almost five football fields, accelerate innovation efforts, and create focused teams for shipbuilding, naval technologies, and other defense-related programs.
Key investors include Founders Fund and Lux Capital, with additional funding support provided through a loan from Morgan Stanley.
