Missile Anatomy — Fathom Manufacturing

The anatomy of a missile —
and the manufacturing it demands

A tactical missile draws on 10+ distinct manufacturing processes across six major sections. Most prime contractors manage those processes across 12–20 separate suppliers. There’s got to be a better way.

What if you had a single manufacturing partner that was built for the surge — purpose built to support complex defense programs?

Let’s look at why surging missile production is so complicated.
