The future of aerospace & defense manufacturing is fully digital – The Divergent Adaptive Production System (DAPS™) – 10x faster, rapidly scalable, and dramatically more cost effective.

Lukas Czinger, CEO of @Divergent__Tech: What do we need to be successful in providing end systems at scale? We need to pair resiliency with scale, using tools that can multitask to make a cruise missile, an auto part, or a fuselage. The factory needs to be agnostic to the end project and able to adapt rapidly. That is how we add value to our partners and the warfighter. #DisruptorsByTheLakes #CreativeDisruptors
We're proud to count @Divergent3D among our Strategic Partners for #DisruptorsByTheLakes! Divergent is building the new industrial age. Divergent is the creator of DAPS™, a modern manufacturing platform that features advanced design and manufacturing with automated assembly. #CreativeDisruptors
#3DPrinting News Briefs: @UMaine Advanced Structures & Composites Center launched the #3Dprinted 3Dirigo X boat. US defense tech company @AEVEX_Aerospace & @Divergent3D are collaborating for adaptive UAS development. @tripoai raised 3 billion yuan in Series B & Series B+.
This week, our team including Co-Founder and CEO @lukasczinger spent time with House Defense Appropriations Subcommittee Chair @KenCalvert (R-CA) and Ranking Member @BettyMcCollum04 (D-MN) to share the latest on Divergent’s growth and production scale for our customers and industry partners.
🤝Exclusive: Drone-maker @AEVEX_Aerospace and additive manufacturing hotshot @Divergent3D are teaming up to develop a Group 2-3 “next-generation autonomous platform" designed around Divergent's 3D printing technology.

👀Some context on the two sides of this partnership:
— @AEVEX_Aerospace ($AVEX) has delivered well over 10,000 long-range strike drones to the US and allied militaries (especially Ukraine) in the past few years.
— @Divergent3D prints airframes for pretty much every prime and major startup on big-time missile programs, including Tomahawk, FAMM, LCCM, etc.
🤝They're now teaming up to develop a new long-range precision-strike UAS designed around Divergent's 3D printing process for maximum adaptability and volume.
The goal: "Designing something that is actually meant to be scaled, but also compressing that overall process," Divergent CEO @lukasczinger told me.

Advanced manufacturing meets field-proven autonomy.
Today we're announcing that we've partnered with @AEVEX_Aerospace to develop a next-generation autonomous platform built for speed, scale and flexibility across mission sets.
With our manufacturing platform DAPS™, we're combining software-driven design, advanced manufacturing and automated assembly to deliver an unmanned aircraft system (UAS) with greater speed, flexibility, and production resilience.

This week, at the inaugural Defense Industrial Base Accelerator (#DIBX2026) hosted by Hon. Cadenazzi, our Co-Founder and CEO @lukasczinger took the stage with Hon. Andersen to talk about “Revolutionizing the Defense Industrial Base.”
The discussion focused on new models of partnership between defense primes and next-generation technology companies, and how those partnerships can help accelerate the technology and production capacity needed to meet urgent warfighter demand.
At Divergent, we’re focused on strengthening the defense industrial base through advanced manufacturing. Today, we’re supporting 25+ customer programs across a broad range of mission-critical hardware, including autonomous aircraft fuselages, fighter jet gearboxes, warhead casings, and more.
Thank you to DIBX for bringing together leaders from across government and industry and facilitating action-oriented conversations about what it takes to build the defense industrial base for the future.
Hayman Capital Management founder Kyle Bass built a reputation as one of the investment world’s most candid voices on supply chains & the risks of relying too much on China for critical manufacturing. So when he talks about a manufacturing firm, people listen. One is @Divergent3D
Every day, we're delivering missile airframes at scale.
With fully additively manufactured airframes by Divergent, CoAspire's RAACM (Rapidly Adaptable Affordable Cruise Missile) is among our highest rate customer program to date, delivering multiple airframes each day.
With DAPS™, our factories are adaptive, meaning that we can transition from producing an airframe for a missile to an automotive subframe back-to-back.
Software driven – no retooling required.
Aerospace and defense are moving into the next chapter of additive manufacturing where quality production at scale becomes the new standard.
On Thursday, July 9, the @3dprintindustry and @AdditiveMFGUG will host its annual Additive Manufacturing Advantage: Aerospace, Space and Defense (AMAA 2026) to convene industry leaders and chart the path from breakthrough innovation to operational readiness.
Our COO Cooper Keller will join this year's event to share how we are scaling AM production across aerospace and defense programs, including more detail about Monolith One, our metal additive manufacturing solution that is a critical component of DAPS™, our software-defined manufacturing platform.

America turns 250 today — marking two and a half centuries of innovation that have built industries, advanced technology, and shaped the world.
From record-breaking hypercars to multiplanetary spacecraft, American ingenuity has continually expanded what’s possible, transforming transportation, exploration and national capability.
The next 250 years will require a new generation of breakthroughs, supported by faster, more adaptable ways to design and manufacture complex systems.
At Divergent, we're focused on enabling that future through advanced manufacturing technologies that accelerate innovation and expand what's possible.
With our manufacturing platform, DAPS™, we design, build, and assemble structures and solutions across critical industries.
One recent example is our work with @LockheedMartin. Together, we took an autonomous drone from design to hardware in months, using a digital-first approach to compress the path from engineering to production. Divergent supplied an advanced design, additively manufactured and robotically assembled airframe.
Now with our new 430,000 sq. ft. factory, and the Monolith One, our in-house, industrial, metal 3D printers, we are ramping up our manufacturing operations to deliver an 8X increase in annual production output for our customer programs across the defense and commercial sectors.

@latimes has recognized Divergent as a leading aerospace and defense company in Southern California and named CEO and Co-Founder @lukasczinger to its annual list of Industry Visionaries.
This recognition is especially meaningful in a region with a deep legacy of aerospace innovation. Southern California has played a defining role in shaping American aviation, space, and defense — and continues to be one of the nation’s fastest-growing hubs for the next generation of aerospace and defense companies. The honor also recognizes leaders who are driving meaningful progress through exceptional leadership, innovation, and impact.
At Divergent, Lukas is paving a new path in advanced manufacturing — one designed to accelerate the development and production of mission-critical systems while strengthening the future of American industry.
