Aerojet Rocketdyne Holdings, Inc. (AJRD) is an American enterprise primarily focused on the creation, production, and distribution of advanced aerospace and defense solutions. Its operations are organized into two distinct business segments. The first, its Aerospace and Defense division, is a key supplier to the United States government – including agencies like the Department of Defense and NASA – as well as leading aerospace and defense prime contractors. This segment provides a comprehensive range of sophisticated systems, such as liquid and solid rocket propulsion technologies, cutting-edge air-breathing hypersonic engines, and electric power and propulsion systems, catering to space, military, civilian, and commercial requirements. It also develops armament systems. Its Real Estate segment manages the company's non-core land assets. This involves processes like re-zoning, obtaining necessary entitlements, and facilitating the sale or lease of these properties. Notably, this segment oversees a substantial land parcel of 11,277 acres situated just east of Sacramento, California, adjacent to U.S. Highway 50, between the communities of Rancho Cordova and Folsom. Founded in 1915, the company was formerly known as GenCorp Inc. It rebranded to Aerojet Rocketdyne Holdings, Inc. in April 2015 and is headquartered in El Segundo, California.
