# Amprius Engages CAMINUS for Indianapolis Cell Production

Amprius Technologies has engaged CAMINUS to manufacture Amprius silicon-anode pouch cells in Indianapolis, Indiana, with volume production planned for the first quarter of 2027. The cells are intended for aviation, defense, and uncrewed-systems customers. The announcement identifies no government customer, solicitation, contract value, or procurement contact, so it signals a potential supply-chain development rather than a confirmed government procurement opportunity.

- Defense and aviation contractors may assess whether the planned cell production could support their future platform qualification, integration, or battery supply-chain needs.
- Companies evaluating the technology should distinguish the planned 1Q27 volume-production timeline from currently available production capacity; no procurement schedule or customer commitments were disclosed.
