I am an employee of iRocket and have a conflict of interest, which I have disclosed on my user page. I am not editing the article directly. I ask an independent editor to review the rewrite at User:Edits239/IRocket draft and apply what they find appropriate.
Why the article needs updating
- The current article describes the company only as a launch-vehicle startup, using events from 2021 to 2023. It does not mention the company's current work: rocket motors, guided-rocket components and counter-drone munitions for U.S. military customers.
- The rewrite adds the 2026 U.S. Army awards, the iRX-100 missile tests and the company's manufacturing partnership with Velo3D, and shortens the launch-vehicle history into a single section.
- It also records the BPGC Acquisition Corp. merger agreement and its termination, each backed by sources.
Sourcing
- The sources are independent trade and news outlets (Breaking Defense, The Defense Post, Microwaves & RF, Defence Blog, SpaceNews, Payload, Defense Daily, TechCrunch, CNBC) and an SEC filing.
- Company-origin material is used only for basic facts and is attributed in the text.
- The $30–150 million contract value is the company's own figure and is labelled that way.
Neutral tone The draft avoids promotional language and forward-looking claims, and it states that the company had not flown an orbital vehicle as of 2025 reporting.
Please let me know if any wording or source needs to change. Edits239 (talk) 17:39, 28 October 2026 (UTC)
