Redwire was recently recognized at the 11th annual Industry Day of the Latvian National Armed Forces as the recipient of the “Defence Industry Annual Prize in Growth.” Redwire was recognized for engineering innovation and the delivery of resilient, mission-critical solutions that strengthen operational readiness and security for Latvia and allied nations.
The annual Industry Day event brought together government leaders in the Latvian National Armed Forces and Ministry of Defence, as well as policymakers and industry experts at the national, EU, and NATO levels, to discuss emerging defence capability needs, regulatory developments, and long-term strategic priorities.
Each year, the Industry Day awards recognize industry leaders in technological advancement and international competitiveness. The growth of Redwire in Europe reflects an expanding capacity to support government customers by delivering greater value, global scale, and increased resources for ongoing innovation.

The “Defence Industry Annual Prize in Growth” is a tangible sign of Redwire’s commitment to aligning technological development with the priorities of national defence stakeholders by delivering cutting-edge capabilities that bolster NATO’s defence ecosystem and advance the security objectives of allied governments worldwide
In 2025, the production facility in Riga expanded, which significantly increased the company’s footprint in Europe. Redwire is rapidly delivering combat-proven technologies, including Penguin uncrewed aircraft systems to Octopus ISR payload solutions, on time and on budget. These solutions are supporting allied governments in addressing ever-evolving security challenges by providing enhanced situational awareness and mission-ready capabilities.

Redwire extends its appreciation to the Latvian National Armed Forces, the Ministry of Defence, and all partners that contribute to strengthening the national security of our allies.
