Rapid Composites / Darkmoth Robotics UAS/AI (RC/DMR)
Acquisition-Ready, Vertically Integrated UAS Manufacturing Platform – Major Asset Sale
Includes building/factory, capital equipment, URL's, Trade Names & Trademarks and negotiable IP. Sold as-is.

RC/DMR is a fully operational, vertically integrated unmanned aerial systems (UAS) manufacturer built for speed, control, and scale. This is not a startup—it is a production-ready aerospace platform backed by 26+ years of engineering refinement and capital investment.

Every critical function—engineering, CAD, tooling, CNC machining, automation, composite molding, assembly, and testing—operates under one roof with near-zero outside vendor reliance. The result: unmatched speed, margin control, and manufacturing independence.

RC/DMR operates one of the fastest carbon fiber production cycles in the United States. Aerospace-grade structural parts are produced in under 8 minutes, many in under 2 minutes, and some in as little as 45 seconds—creating a disruptive domestic manufacturing advantage.

The company focuses on mission-critical systems including high-aspect-ratio wings, delta platforms, VTOL, transitional aircraft, ISR, logistics, and tactical systems of all sorts. The portfolio includes 20+ distinct, production-ready aircraft platforms internally developed and funded by RC. NO customer-funded designs are included in this asset sale.

Beyond aerospace, the platform extends into consumer and commercial technologies including advanced computing systems, e-foil surf technology, targeting systems, mechanisms, automotive processes, and hybrid materials science.

Strategic Investment Highlights:

True Vertical Integration
Design through flight-ready production entirely in-house—protecting IP, margins, and timelines.

Defense-Grade Production Speed
Rapid molding systems producing structural flight components in minutes.

Nearly 200 Pieces of IP & Proprietary Systems
Includes custom machinery acquired from Lockheed Martin’s Skunk Works and internally developed automation platforms.

Turnkey ITAR-Registered Facility
Fully operational CNC machining, rapid prototyping, tool and die, composite molding, and automation systems. Some systems require over two years to replicate.

Dual-Use Scalability
Positioned for defense primes, subcontractors, tactical integrators, & high-performance commercial markets.

Market Position:

Global UAS demand is accelerating due to defense modernization, autonomy, and rapid deployment needs. Domestic manufacturing capability is increasingly strategic. RC/DMR represents a rare opportunity to acquire a fully built, acquisition-ready aerospace production platform rather than assemble one over years.

For private equity, this is immediate entry into the defense-industrial base backed by significant hard assets, proprietary machinery, and a scalable automation framework.

For technology investors, RC/DMR offers a hard-tech infrastructure platform ready for AI integration, autonomous systems development, and next-generation materials innovation—combining software potential with physical production strength.

Leadership & Transition:

The founders are pursuing an asset sale and possible employment structure to focus on next-generation design and materials innovation. Technical depth remains available to accelerate post-acquisition growth.

RC/DMR is a compact, high-output aerospace Skunk Works—lean, fast, and engineered for those who understand that speed, vertical control, and manufacturing ownership win in the modern Made-in-America economy.

Facilities & Assets:

Photos suggest only part of the scale. The facility includes:

Large advanced engineering studio

Extensive reverse-engineering capability

Large-scale CNC systems

13 automated workcells

Over $400K in aerospace-grade materials, tooling, & inventory

Executive offices, an upstairs assembly area, and secure storage beyond the firewall complete this state-of-the-art, ready-to-scale manufacturing operation.
