Stellios Technologies, based in Austin, has emerged from stealth mode with $2 million in signed purchase orders for its MW-class high-power microwave systems. These systems are aimed at counter-drone defense and various industrial applications. The company officially launched on October 20, 2026, following an oversubscribed $5 million pre-seed financing round.
The significance of Stellios Technologies lies in its mission to enhance U.S. capabilities in high-energy power systems, which are crucial for technological and military leadership in the 21st century. The company is focused on developing advanced technologies, including directed energy and compact fusion, to address urgent defense needs while laying the groundwork for future propulsion systems.
Looking ahead, Stellios plans to utilize its funding to manufacture its first high-power microwave systems and establish domestic research and manufacturing facilities. The company also aims to expand its engineering and sales teams, accelerate government business development, and advance its AI-native engineering platform, Stellios Genesis. No further timeline was disclosed at the time of publication.
