V2X delivers integrated defense hardware and operational support, highlighted by the Tempest mobile counter-unmanned aerial system designed to defeat Class 2 and Class 3 drones.

What V2X does

V2X Supplies mobile counter-unmanned aerial systems by mounting radar sensors and missile launchers onto commercial off-road vehicle platforms. Generates revenue through military equipment contracts bundled with long-term software management, maintenance, operator training, engineering services, and spare parts. Operates as a systems integrator, pairing commercial ground chassis with combat-tested radar sensors and fire-and-forget munitions to provide tactical air defense for ground troops.

This profile is qualitative by design. It carries no share price, no price target, no valuation multiple, and no rating — those change faster than any page can honestly track, and the filings linked below are the authoritative source for them.

V2X drone lineup

The current public product record does not identify a complete aircraft lineup.

No complete-aircraft offering is catalogued for this company; it is tracked here as an unmanned-systems enabler.

Statuses are editorial classifications from the company’s current public catalog: active means currently presented for sale, delivery, or program work; development means publicly disclosed but not a mature production offering; legacy means retained for historical or installed-fleet coverage.

Recent contracts & awards

A dated log of the specific contracts, orders, funding, and deployments reported for V2X, each tied to its primary source. This is a record of what was announced — a "selection", "award", or "partnership" is not the same as obligated money, so read each source before treating a figure as revenue. No figure appears here unless a source reported it.

OrderSep 10, 2026
V2X awarded $19 million Marine Corps IDIQ contract for 10 Tempest counter-drone vehicles
V2X announced a $19 million indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract to supply the U.S. Marine Corps with 10 Tempest counter-UAS vehicles, along with software management, spare parts, training, maintenance, and engineering support. The lightweight 4x4 platform mounts radar and two AGM-114L Longbow Hellfire missile launchers to target Class 2 and Class 3 drones. Researchers should review future company filings and Pentagon contract digests to confirm initial task order obligations against the $19 million ceiling.

Is V2X going public?

The source documentation does not identify a public stock ticker or trading exchange for V2X. Analysts tracking the company should verify entity structure and public reporting status through the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) EDGAR database.

Where V2X sits in the value chain

V2X is a defense contractor whose unmanned work sits inside a wider defense portfolio, so drone headlines are only one input into results and can be offset — in both directions — by unrelated segments.

Its disclosed activity spans ground robotics, counter-UAS. That placement is the single most useful thing to fix in your head before reading any coverage, because the same headline means different things at different layers: a large platform award is transformative for a pure-play, material but diluted for a diversified contractor, and only indirectly relevant to a component supplier whose exposure arrives later as build-rate demand. Retail coverage routinely applies one story to all three layers at once. For the layer-by-layer comparison across the sector, see the drone stocks research shortlist and the list of publicly traded drone companies.

What to watch

The signals worth tracking are structural, not price-based — they tell you whether the business is changing shape, which is what eventually shows up in the numbers.

Operational evaluation results showing whether the mobile shoot-and-scoot configuration successfully defeats Class 2 and Class 3 unmanned aircraft during field exercises.
Follow-on procurement decisions indicating whether the initial vehicle batch transitions into standardized fleet adoption across additional military units.
Supply stability and integration timelines for core third-party components, including commercial 4x4 chassis, radar suites, and missile inventories.
Fielding schedules for alternative system layouts, such as stationary or trailer-mounted variants designed for fixed perimeter protection.

How to research V2X

Every question below has one authoritative source, and using the wrong source is how most retail research goes wrong.

Research question	Where the answer lives	What to look for
Is there anything to buy?	SEC EDGAR full-text search	Whether any registration statement exists at all — absent one, there is no public security.
Is the government work real?	Official DoD contract announcements	Awarding service and scope of work, rather than a company-issued announcement.
What is the acquisition pathway?	DIU and DARPA program pages	Whether the work runs through non-traditional agreements or a conventional program of record.
How would exposure even work?	Fund holdings disclosures	Whether any listed vehicle discloses a stake — indirect exposure is usually thin and unstated.

Verify contract announcements, delivery orders, and program modifications directly on the U.S. Department of Defense Contracts portal.
Monitor operational requirements and deployment milestones through official releases from the U.S. Marine Corps.
Check system integration details and configuration specifications on the official V2X company website.
Search the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) EDGAR system to review regulatory filings and corporate structure details.

One failure mode is worth naming explicitly: a company announcement describing a "selection", "award", or "partnership" is not the same as obligated money, and the two are easy to conflate because they use the same vocabulary. Check the official record before treating either as revenue. Our full approach is documented on the methodology page.
