Primary Industries in Las Vegas
Las Vegas’s strongest manufacturing sectors — and the precision parts we machine for each.
Aerospace
Las Vegas serves as the gateway to America's most important aerospace test ranges — Nellis AFB hosts the USAF Weapons School and Red Flag exercises, Creech AFB operates the nation's MQ-9 Reaper fleet, and the Nevada Test and Training Range provides vast restricted airspace. Bigelow Aerospace (now operations wound down) pioneered inflatable space habitats, and Sierra Nevada Corporation maintains operations supporting Dream Chaser and ISR systems.
