FactoryRegistry lists 1,699 facilities whose primary industry classification is one of the 1 industry above. This is a list by industry, not a list of makers: Census reports that establishments in these industries produced unmanned robotic military aircraft, including unmanned aircraft for U.S. military and any other unmanned aircraft built to military specifications, in the shares shown above, and does not say which establishments. Where a plant’s own website or a federal registry names what that plant makes, it appears on the plant’s own page with the source named.
The U.S. Census Bureau recorded this product line in 1 US manufacturing industry in the 2022 Economic Census, as the most specific line that industry reported, where 27 establishments reported producing it.
These are counts of establishments by industry: the Economic Census publishes them as industry totals and never as a list of plants.
NAPCS collection code 2012100006. Source for the product line, the establishment counts and the shares: U.S. Census Bureau, 2022 Economic Census (ECNNAPCSIND2022). Federal source data is public domain. Facility records are compiled separately by FactoryRegistry and carry their own sources.
