SpaceX’s IPO pitch widens: $75B target raise, $28.5T TAM framing, and a Starship V3 test-flight failure weeks ahead of launch SpaceX is positioning itself to join the ranks of public companies building the space-based economy, using its IPO marketing to frame a $28.5T total addressable market and a potential $75B fundraise. The filing also lands amid timing pressure after a Starship V3 test deployed mock satellites while the Super Heavy booster was destroyed after separation.

USAF calls MQ-9 Reaper the “MVP” in Epic Fury as lawmakers weigh manned-unmanned priorities Air Force leaders told Congress the remotely piloted MQ-9 Reaper was a “workhorse” in the U.S. air campaign against Iran, even as the fiscal 2027 budget request continues to concentrate aircraft funding in crewed fighters. The testimony comes alongside new industry work on expendable autonomous drone engines, including GE426 proposals.
