Redwire Corporation is a space and defense technology company with its corporate contact address in Jacksonville, Florida. Its space hardware includes roll-out solar arrays used to augment the International Space Station’s power supply.
Spaceflight Now reported that Redwire built the final pair of station solar-array wings carried by SpaceX’s Dragon cargo flight on October 13, 2026. The wings were stowed in the spacecraft’s unpressurized trunk for later installation, rather than deployed by the launch itself.
