March 10, 2026 - BARTON, Ala- Congressman Robert Aderholt (AL-04) today followed up on his announcement yesterday regarding a significant new defense-related project coming to Northwest Alabama.

This morning it can be confirmed that the company associated with this investment is Hadrian, a fast-growing advanced manufacturing company focused on strengthening America's defense industrial base. The company has already launched a website dedicated to its upcoming work in the region: hadrianalabama.com. And they have billboards up in the Shoals.

"I am very pleased to confirm that Hadrian is the company partnering with the U.S. Navy on this important project in Northwest Alabama," said Congressman Aderholt. "Hadrian represents the kind of innovative American manufacturing that is critical to rebuilding and strengthening our nation's defense supply chain."

Hadrian specializes in advanced precision manufacturing and works with leading defense and aerospace partners to rapidly produce high-quality components needed for national security.

"This investment represents a strong partnership between private industry, the U.S. Navy, and the Trump Administration to reinforce America's defense industrial base," Aderholt continued. "Northwest Alabama has a long history of supporting our nation's military and defense mission, going all the way back to World War I, and we are proud to play a role in helping ensure the United States maintains the strongest military in the world."

Aderholt added that Hadrian's decision to invest in Northwest Alabama highlights the region's skilled workforce, strategic location, and growing importance in the nation's defense manufacturing ecosystem.

"This is exactly the type of investment that strengthens our economy, supports American jobs, and reinforces our national security," Aderholt said. "I look forward to working with Hadrian, the Navy, and the Trump Administration as this project moves forward."
