Northrop Grumman Corporation and the U.S. Air Force have unveiled the B-21 Raider to the world. The
B-21 joins the nuclear triad as a visible and flexible deterrent designed for the U.S. Air Force to meet its
most complex missions.
" The Northrop Grumman team develops and delivers technology that advances science, looks into
the future and brings it to the here and now, " said Kathy Warden, chair, chief executive officer and
president, Northrop Grumman. " The B-21 Raider defines a new era in technology and strengthens
America's role of delivering peace through deterrence. "
The B-21 Raider forms the backbone of the future for U.S. air power, leading a powerful family
of systems that deliver a new era of capability and flexibility through advanced integration of data,
sensors and weapons. Its sixth-generation capabilities include stealth, information advantage and open
architecture. The B-21 is capable of networking across the battlespace to multiple systems, and into
all domains. Supported by a digital ecosystem throughout its lifecycle, the B-21 can quickly evolve
through rapid technology upgrades that provide new capabilities to outpace future threats.

Natilus, a U.S. corporation, is producing the world's first purposefully designed and manufactured autonomous aircraft for air
freight transport. As a big step forward, Natilus has partnered with Janicki for composite part design and fabrication, due to their
renowned reputation for innovation and quality workmanship as a tier 1 supplier. Through Natilus' design and development of a
mostly composite, blended-wing body, autonomous aircraft, the company will provide customers with double the cargo volume
for each trip, while simultaneously reducing up to 60% of today's cargo transport cost. On top of the customer benefits, the
technology and unique shape of the blended wing body also thrusts aerospace toward a greener future with a 50% reduced
carbon footprint per vehicle, and a clear path to zero emissions with hydrogen. Natilus' N3.8T is scheduled to fly in 2024
" We selected Janicki because they are a family-owned and operated company, founded
and run by engineers with the highest qualifications and experience in designing largescale,
high-precision prototypes, tools and production parts, "
Natilus CEO Aleksey Matyushev
