About the company
Yates Electrospace Corp, doing business as Silent Arrow, manufactures unmanned aerial systems (UAS) for cargo delivery to the Department of the Air Force and the Department of the Army as a prime contractor under total small business set-asides, with all six recent federal awards held as primes and combined potential value of $4.4 million. Silent Arrow is a self-certified small disadvantaged business and for-profit manufacturer based in Laguna Hills, California.
The vendor's entire recent footprint concentrates on Air Force and Army research and development partnerships. The Air Force Research Laboratory funds five awards ($3.9 million combined potential value), anchored by Silent Arrow's sustained Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) engagement on contested logistics systems. The Army Research Development and Engineering Command awarded one contract ($534 thousand) for Silent Arrow Gliders, an advanced aerial delivery system for military and special operations logistics. Representative work includes a $1.78 million firm fixed-price definitive contract from AFRL for low-cost long-range airdrop delivery development (ultimate completion May 31, 2027), a $1.25 million Phase II SBIR purchase order from AFRL for the Contested Logistics System with 300 Nautical Mile Range (CLS-300) supporting Air Force Special Operations Command requirements (ultimate completion August 23, 2025), and a $749 thousand Phase II SBIR purchase order from AFRL for guided bundle derivative and swarm deployment technologies for unmanned cargo delivery (completed June 3, 2024).
All awards are total small business set-asides, and Silent Arrow competes exclusively under this posture. Activity is episodic — two awards in 2021, one in 2023, two in 2024, and one in 2026 — with the largest concentration of potential value ($1.8 million) due to complete within the next twenty-four months, creating near-term recompete exposure on the low-cost long-range airdrop effort.
