RESTON – November 03, 2026 -- Leidos (NYSE: LDOS) has lined up its missile-component suppliers to build an initial 3,000 Low-Cost Containerized Missile (LCCM) weapons, with full-rate production anticipated in 2028 and 2029.

The supplier summit took place September 26 at Leidos' headquarters. Participants aligned on requirements, manufacturing capacity, timelines and delivery schedules. The work supports the May 13 framework agreement between the Department of War and Leidos for the 3,000 LCCM weapons. It also supports the AGM-190A Havoc Spear cruise missile, which Leidos describes as combat-proven.

Leidos plans LCCM and Havoc Spear production in Alabama and Tennessee

LCCM and AGM-190A production will be concentrated primarily in Huntsville, Alabama, and McEwen, Tennessee. Leidos' suppliers will perform work across 14 states.

Reston – October 29, 2026 -- U.S. Cyber Command has awarded Leidos (NYSE: LDOS) a $99 million Other Transaction Authority (OTA) prototype agreement to continue developing a digital platform for planning, coordinating and assessing cyber missions in one environment.

Platform consolidates separate cyber workflows into one system

Cyber Command describes the system as the first integrated platform of its kind for cyber operators. It merges workflows and tools that were traditionally separate. Its modular architecture is intended to support integration with government and third-party technologies as mission needs change, which gives the government flexibility in how the platform is developed and sustained.

Reston – October 13, 2026 -- Leidos has completed Jailbreak Sprint 1.5 at Redstone Arsenal, Alabama, bringing its ALPS surveillance system into the U.S. Army's new Reveille Forge integration and testing environment, following three Leidos systems tested at the first sprint in June.

Reveille Forge follows the Army's Operation Jailbreak exercise held earlier this year. It is intended to surface system interoperability problems earlier in development, before technologies reach soldiers in the field.

Reveille Forge replaces periodic events with a persistent integration model

The Army designed the environment to move integration from periodic events to a persistent "integrate-first" approach. Government, industry and academia can test earlier how technologies work together.

Washington – October 12, 2026 -- Leidos (NYSE: LDOS) has selected X-Bow Systems to develop and produce the booster motors for the U.S. Army's Low-Cost Containerized Munition (LCCM), with full-rate production at scale planned for 2027. X-Bow announced the award at the Association of the United States Army (AUSA) Annual Meeting and Exposition.

X-Bow enters design, qualification and static-fire phase ahead of 2027 production

Under the agreement, X-Bow will move through design, qualification testing and static fires before ramping to full-rate output. Leidos will produce the munitions in large quantities.

LCCM advances the Department of War's "Arsenal of Freedom" initiative

The award places X-Bow in one of the fastest-growing segments of U.S. defense spending: rebuilding a domestic solid rocket motor industrial base long concentrated among a handful of large suppliers, and fielding precision munitions in volume.

Reston, Va. – – September 29, 2026 -- Leidos (NYSE:LDOS) unveiled UpHold EffectTM Agentic SOC Automation, a new capability using AI agents to triage cybersecurity alerts around the clock for federal security operations center teams, addressing a surge in alert volume driven by automated adversary attacks.

AI agents investigate threats while analysts retain final control over actions

The system works continuously to triage incoming alerts, gather contextual data and assemble findings for human analyst review. Customers determine the scope of AI authority, deciding whether the technology can only recommend actions or is permitted to execute them directly, based on mission requirements and risk tolerance.

Every AI decision generates an auditable record documenting what the system observed, concluded and proposed or executed, according to Leidos.
