Delivering Purpose-Driven
Solutions with Precision
We turn concepts into integrated, high-performance systems designed to meet mission demands in the most complex environments.
Capability Engineering
Real-world challenges demand real-world engineering. At Kitty Hawk Technologies, we focus on the mission to design, develop, and deliver systems that meet the rigorous standards of national defense programs—ensuring each solution performs, connects, and adapts in theater.
Whether upgrading legacy platforms or building new, we design to perform—not just to plan.
What We Deliver: From Requirements to Resilience
Our Capability Engineering services span the full spectrum from early design and definition through performance verification and validation.
Our teams work shoulder-to-shoulder with warfighters and customers to understand objectives, constraints, and operational context. Every decision—from material selection to interface protocol—is made with end-user success in mind.
Our Approach to Capability Delivery
- Collaborative Design Reviews – Bringing engineers, analysts, and stakeholders into an iterative development loop
- Cross-Domain Thinking – Engineering solutions that operate across land, sea, air, space, and cyber
- Integrated Engineering – Teams that combine systems, software, aerospace, electrical, and mechanical engineering expertise
- Contract-Aware Delivery – Aligning engineering strategy with timelines and requirements of DoD vehicles like SeaPort NxG, OASIS+, and NSTIC OTA
- Adaptable Teams – Scalable support for fast-turn subsystems or full program buildouts
Kitty Hawk Technologies has helped government clients shorten acquisition timelines, reduce system failures, and deploy technologies built to perform in contested environments.
Driving Technical Impact Across Defense Programs
- Systems architecture refinement for major Missile Defense Agency initiatives
- Subsystem integration and performance validation within NAVSEA programs
- Technical interface definition and compliance support for cross-vendor development
- Lifecycle alignment of engineering plans with WVU-partnered R&D efforts
Engineering is the bridge—but it's not the beginning or end. Explore how our adjacent capabilities support full mission lifecycle delivery:
