Overview
- UFORCE closed a $700 million Series A financing at a $6 billion valuation on Thursday, November 12, 2026, in a round co-led by Valor Equity Partners and the UK National Wealth Fund with participation from the U.S.–Ukraine Reconstruction Investment Fund.
- The UK National Wealth Fund committed roughly £113 million to expand UFORCE production in Britain and create high‑skilled engineering and manufacturing jobs tied to domestic suppliers.
- The company says the capital will fund distributed manufacturing and R&D for its MAGURA uncrewed surface vessels, NEMESIS strike drones, LIUT ground robots and PREDATOR counter‑UAS systems and will scale U.S. production through a partnership with ReconCraft.
- Retired General Christopher Cavoli, who is a partner at Valor, is joining UFORCE’s board, and URIF said its investment will support operations and R&D in Ukraine; these moves underline rising state-backed involvement in private defence finance.
- UFORCE’s claims about battlefield effects — including dozens of Russian warships struck and more than 300,000 NEMESIS flights — are reported by the company and have not been independently verified, leaving questions about how quickly the new capital can convert into sustained, exportable production and long‑term government contracts.
