Ruag Space, a supplier of products to the space industry, has announced that Mike Morningstar will assume the role of president and country manager of Ruag Space USA. With immediate effect, Morningstar will be responsible for the operations of all Ruag Space USA sites, and will represent the organization as it expands its presence in the country.

This new appointment comes on the heels of regional growth for Ruag Space, which has generated about one-third of its revenue in the U.S. market, and reinforces the commitments that RUAG Space made earlier this year to further strengthen its presence in the United States.

Morningstar has more than 25 years of management experience leading large organizations across defense and commercial industries. He served as vice president and general manager of the global solutions division at DRS Technologies. He has also previously held leadership positions in companies such as Northrop Grumman, Sun Microsystems and TRW.
