The Ursa Major
Standard
Quality to perform. Cybersecurity to protect. Additive manufacturing to scale. Systems built for today’s fight and tomorrow’s threats.
AS9100D, ISO9001, and CMMC L2 Certified
Certified Precision. Operational Excellence.
At Ursa Major, quality and compliance is at the heart of all we do. As an AS9100D-certified manufacturer and CMMC Level 2 certified, we uphold the highest aerospace standards across our operation, from design through delivery, and cybersecurity at every step. Every system we build reflects our commitment to mission assurance, customer alignment, safe processes, and continuous improvement.
We bring the same discipline to our quality programs and cybersecurity systems as we do to our product lines. With tightly connected design, test, and production teams, we embed quality and cybersecurity from day one to deliver capability with the performance our customers demand and the warfighter depends on.
Additive Manufacturing at Ursa Major
Where Agility Meets Scale
At Ursa Major, additive manufacturing is a warfighting advantage. We build mission-critical flight hardware, not just prototypes, using advanced AM strategies proven in real-world operations. Our engines and motors are more than 80% 3D printed by mass, with components like thrust chambers, rotating machinery, igniters, and SRM casings fabricated in-house using repeatable, high-performance AM processes.
Strengthening the Defense Industrial Base
America’s defense readiness depends on agile, scalable manufacturing. That’s why we’re not just using additive, we’re redefining how it’s done. With a focus on physics-driven design, open architectures, and flight-proven results, Ursa Major is delivering the systems and the framework to revitalize the U.S. defense industrial base.
Rewriting the Playbook for Qualification
Traditional qualification models weren’t built for AM’s pace. Ursa Major is leading the shift towards process window-based qualification—tying advanced AM file generation to real data from AM Machines, hotfires, and flights to validate our methods. This approach isn’t just more efficient, it’s essential for competing with adversaries who treat AM as a national imperative.
DESIGN
We design for outcomes. Our engineers leverage advanced modeling, iterative prototyping, and lessons from flight to push the boundaries of what’s possible.
FABRICATE
Our additive manufacturing approach isn’t just modern, it’s essential. With AM, we reduce part count, slash development time, and enable on-demand scaling.
test
With fully integrated test infrastructure and rapid iteration cycles, we control our own schedule; that means we test more, learn faster, and deliver flight-ready hardware without the bottlenecks of legacy systems.
SCALE
We design to manufacture– building propulsion systems that scale fast, repeatedly, and affordably to meet the demands of modern conflict.
