About Patriot Circuits
American-made electronics, with the proof built in.
Patriot Circuits is a U.S.-owned secure electronics manufacturer. We build encrypted storage, flight controllers and onboard AI computers on U.S. soil, trace every chip, and hand you the evidence. Then we bring the same process to other U.S. plants.

Why trust us
Trust is a record, not a slogan.
The questions a program office or a prime asks before they put a new supplier in the file, answered.
ITAR-registered manufacturing
Our boards are assembled in Brooksville, Florida, at an ITAR-registered facility that runs AS9100D and ISO 9001:2015 certified quality systems and builds to IPC workmanship standards.
A lab that gets audited
Our storage hardware and services lab keeps customer hardware and firmware in a secure facility, is audited, and does its work under an ISO 9001-certified quality system.
Evidence, not promises
Every unit we build or certify leaves with a Shield report a person signed. We never claim zero risk, never publish exploits, and never use your firmware to train AI.
Open standards, nothing hidden
Our flight controller is built to the Pixhawk v6X standard and runs mainline ArduPilot or PX4. Our drives use TCG Opal 2.0. You can read what we read.
We assume we’re a target
A company that verifies electronics for defense programs is a target. Hardware security keys, endpoint detection and response on every machine, and air-gapped workstations for firmware analysis.
Who we are
A team that has secured this supply chain before.
Patriot Circuits was founded by people who have run security for one of the world’s largest PC makers, protected the nation’s most sensitive data, built and sold data-security companies, and moved memory production back to American soil. Our engineers, lab staff and Taiwan team carry that experience into every build.
Our mission is to bring manufacturing of America’s most critical electronics back to the United States: secure, fast and 100% domestic.
- Secured the PCsRan global security for the commercial PC business at Dell, one of the largest PC makers in the world.
- Protected the dataLed high-assurance data security at the National Security Agency after a 20-year career in U.S. Air Force intelligence and cybersecurity.
- Built the companiesFounded and led secure-storage and data-security companies, including an In-Q-Tel portfolio company, and hold multiple U.S. patents.
- Reshored the partsMoved DRAM module production from Taiwan back to the United States, to Irvine, California.
- Run the supply chainThirty years in international business, fifteen of them running Asia-Pacific supply chains, now applied to a U.S.-first bill of materials.
Why buy from us
What you get that a spec sheet can’t give you.
- Every mandate, answeredForeign-made UAS parts, covered chips, circuit-board origin, counterfeit traceability: we built the company around the rules you have to meet. See the Compliance page for each one.
- Built here, with the parts tracedU.S. assembly and source control. We don’t claim every chip is fabbed here. We prove where each one came from.
- Firmware we can actually readWe compile the flight-controller firmware ourselves, hash every storage image into our custody, and review source and binaries when you need it.
- Your line, tooThe same inspect, trace and certify process we run on our line, installed in your plant, with keys held in the U.S.
- Orderable nowNothing on this site is a roadmap. If it’s listed, you can order it.
What we have
Facilities, lab and reach.
Two states, one lab, and a team on the ground in Taiwan.
Brooksville, Florida: manufacturing
Surface-mount and through-hole assembly, box build, cable and harness, and test, from low-volume high-mix through production. ITAR-registered, with AS9100D and ISO 9001:2015 quality systems.
Austin, Texas: R&D and lab
Our advanced storage hardware and services lab, in a secure, audited facility: controller flashing and provisioning stations, a burn-in chamber, and air-gapped AI workstations for firmware analysis.
Fort Myers, Florida: secure finishing
Burn-in, key provisioning, serialization, labeling and packaging in a secure facility before anything ships.
Taiwan: licensing and partner engagement
We build here, but we license designs and controller technology from Taiwan. Our team there works 24/7/365 on licensing, partner engagement and business development, and helps our customers manage their own Taiwan IP-sourced suppliers.
Traceability built into the system
Every unit gets a serial number tied to its job, its board lot and its component lots, recorded in our manufacturing system and carried into the Shield report.
Tampa and Orlando, Florida: close to the customer
A presence in Tampa next to MacDill Air Force Base, home of U.S. Special Operations Command and U.S. Central Command, and in Orlando, home of the Army’s and Navy’s simulation and training commands.
Made in the U.S.A.
Domestic manufacturing and source control.
U.S. assembly and source control, not a claim that every chip is fabbed here.
