Huntington Ingalls Industries (HII) is the largest military shipbuilder in the United States, operating through three segments: Ingalls, Newport News, and Mission Technologies. The company designs, builds, overhauls, and repairs military vessels, including non-nuclear amphibious assault ships, surface combatants, and national security cutters for the U.S. Navy and Coast Guard, as well as nuclear-powered aircraft carriers and submarines. Founded in 1886 and headquartered in Newport News, Virginia, HII also provides fleet support, refueling, inactivation, and naval nuclear services.
Beyond shipbuilding, the Mission Technologies segment expands HIIs offerings into C5ISR systems, artificial intelligence and machine learning for battlefield decisions, electronic warfare, uncrewed autonomous systems, and critical nuclear operations. As a large-cap industrial within the Aerospace & Defense sub-industry, HIIs revenue is heavily tied to U.S. federal defense budgets, particularly U.S. Navy contracts, making it one of the few companies capable of designing and maintaining nuclear-powered vessels domestically.
- Columbia submarine funding accelerates Newport News backlog growth
- Mission Technologies margins expand amid defense services demand
- Ingalls destroyer cost overruns weigh on shipbuilding margins
