Firefly is set to acquire SciTec, a defense technology company, in a deal reportedly worth $855 million. The acquisition is expected to support Firefly's growth in software and defense, with potential implications for the Golden Dome project. The exact nature of Firefly's involvement with Golden Dome remains unclear, with some reports suggesting SciTec's selection for a space-based missile defense initiative and others implying Firefly's interest in the project as a motivator for the acquisition.
