Huntington Ingalls Industries, branded HII, builds naval ships and provides defense technology and fleet support through three divisions: Newport News Shipbuilding, Ingalls Shipbuilding and Mission Technologies.
Newport News builds and maintains nuclear-powered carriers and participates in submarine construction; Ingalls builds surface combatants and amphibious ships. Mission Technologies adds C5ISR, artificial intelligence, cyber and electronic warfare, autonomous systems, live-virtual-constructive training, fleet modernization and nuclear operations. HII combines shipyard production with services, systems integration and unmanned maritime platforms. Its Mission Technologies unmanned-systems production campus in Pocasset, Massachusetts expanded by 10,000 square feet in 2026 to support REMUS underwater vehicles and ROMULUS surface vessels; the company also expanded its unmanned facility in Portchester, United Kingdom, to support European customers and mission services.
