AEVEX to Showcase Precision Strike UAS Capabilities at 2026 AFA Warfare Symposium

AEVEX will exhibit at the upcoming AFA Warfare Symposium in Aurora, Colo., marking the company’s first participation in an event hosted by the Air & Space Forces Association. The appearance reflects AEVEX’s continued expansion of its uncrewed aircraft systems portfolio to support emerging air warfare and precision strike mission requirements.

At the symposium, AEVEX will feature its Atlas uncrewed aircraft system, a Group II autonomous precision strike platform engineered for contested and denied environments. Atlas delivers standoff reach, accuracy, and survivability through advanced autonomy and modular mission configurations, enabling rapid deployment and flexible mission execution across modern battlefields.

In addition to Atlas, AEVEX will discuss its broader precision strike ecosystem. This includes ForgeX, the company’s proprietary additive manufacturing system that enables digitally produced aircraft and rapid, scalable production of mission-ready platforms, as well as CompassX, a family of AI-driven navigation and autonomy systems designed for contested environments.

“The AFA Warfare Symposium is the right venue for AEVEX to engage directly with the Air Force community on how precision strike and rapidly produced uncrewed systems are changing the future of air warfare,” said Craig Anders, Senior Vice President of Business Development at AEVEX. “Platforms like Atlas reflect our focus on delivering adaptable, mission-ready capabilities built for today’s operational realities.”

The symposium brings together U.S. and international Air Force leaders focused on weapons, sensors, and advanced capabilities shaping tomorrow’s battlespace. AEVEX’s presence underscores the company’s growing engagement with the Air Force community and its commitment to delivering adaptable, high-performance uncrewed systems aligned with evolving air combat needs.

AEVEX leadership attending the symposium will include Chris Robinson, Vice President, Business Development, Tactical Systems; and Rudy Klosterman, Senior Director, Business Development, Air Force Programs.
