A company that makes military drones has announced plans to build a new campus in Ventura County.
AeroVironment plans to consolidate teams from five leased Southern California locations into a 20-acre site off Princeton Avenue in Moorpark. The company already has a facility nearby.
In a press release, AeroVironment said it will invest $100 million in the new project, which could take two to three years to complete.
Many of the company's projects are classified, but the company got attention for building a helicopter that flew on Mars in 2021. The Ingenuity craft was built in Simi Valley.
