Red Cat's strategy to build sovereign defence drone technology
Red Cat Vice President of Marketing Stan Nowak discusses how the company developed a fully domestic supply chain.
Here we talk to drone manufacturer Red Cat about its strategic pivot toward developing a complete US-made, sovereign system and how this decision is opening doors with international allies and NATO partners.
It covers:
- Why compliance certifications like the National Defense Authorization Act have become the new gatekeepers for defence contracts
- How redundancy in manufacturing protects against supply chain disruption while scaling production for global demand
- Red Cat's expansion into maritime systems and the emerging strategy of localised, distributed manufacturing
