Everyone is 100% focused on the upcoming SpaceX IPO. Investors are desperate to find a way to buy shares – before the $1.5 trillion mega IPO.
Frankly, I’ve been encouraging investors to secure shares using this little-known backdoor.
Here’s how to claim your stake today.
Most investors know Rocket Lab (NASDAQ: RKLB) as a small rocket company. That framing is getting outdated fast.
Over the past few months, Rocket Lab has quietly become one of the more interesting defense contractors in the space sector — and the contract wins to back it up are substantial.
The $816 Million Deal
Last December, the U.S. Space Development Agency awarded Rocket Lab an $816 million contract to design and manufacture 18 satellites for the Tracking Layer Tranche 3 program — equipped with advanced missile warning, tracking, and defense sensors to provide global, persistent detection and tracking of emerging missile threats.
That was Rocket Lab’s largest single contract ever. Rocket Lab wasn’t the only winner — a total of $3.5 billion was split between Rocket Lab, Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, and L3Harris. Each received a contract for 18 satellites. Getting a seat at that table alongside legacy defense primes is a significant statement.
It wasn’t the first time. In total, the SDA has now awarded Rocket Lab over $1.3 billion to develop satellites.
Additionally, Rocket Lab completed another successful hypersonic test mission called “That’s Not A Knife” on February 28. This was conducted for the Defense Innovation Unit — the second successful hypersonic launch within a three-month period.
Rocket Lab has also said it intends to bid for multibillion-dollar Department of Defense initiatives like Golden Dome. These aren’t aspirational statements — they’re backed by a track record of execution.
The company is winning contracts – and grows its sales backlog.
Three weeks ago, Rocket Lab reported its Q4 and full-year 2025 results. Full-year revenue hit a record $602 million, up 38% year-over-year, with Q4 revenue of $180 million. The backlog finished the year at $1.85 billion — 73% growth year-on-year.
Rocket Lab is tiny in comparison to Elon Musk’s SpaceX.
The SpaceX IPO is expected in June 2026. That’s why I’m rushing to secure a stake before the confidential filing with the SEC.

P.S. When SpaceX goes public, it will almost certainly trigger a broad re-rating of space stocks. Investors who missed SpaceX’s private run will look for the next best thing — and Rocket Lab is one of the most credible publicly traded pure-play in the sector.
