Vector UAS DoD APFIT Program FY2023 Production Scaling

The U.S. Department of Defense allocated USD 20 million in FY2023 APFIT (Accelerated Procurement and Fielding Initiative) funds to Quantum Systems Inc. for accelerated procurement and production scaling of the Vector UAS platform. The Vector was approved for rapid government procurement via the Defense Innovation Unit (DIU) Blue UAS List, meeting strict DoD cybersecurity, supply chain, and performance standards. A new 135,000 sq ft production facility in Moorpark, California was established to support this scaling.
