Darley has proudly served American first responders and warfighters for over a century.
During World War II, we supplied hundreds of fire trucks and fire pumps to the US military, earning the prestigious Army/Navy E Award three times! In the 1990s, Darley was awarded a contract to supply the US Navy with the P100 pump, and since then, we have shipped over $100 million worth of these pumps to the US Navy and more than 40 other navies around the world.
A few years later, the US Coast Guard selected Darley to receive the P6 damage control pump award. The US Marine Corps and US Army also chose Darley to provide the LE600 fuel transfer pump, among other significant contracts. In 2024, Darley supplied over $1.1 billion worth of pumps, special operational equipment, and firefighting gear to the US Department of Defense, earning a spot as one of the top 50 defense contractors in the USA.
Darley’s growth has been driven by our significant expansion in supplying C5ISR equipment. C5ISR stands for Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Cyber, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance, a military framework that enhances communication, intelligence gathering, and cyber protection.
According to Chief Financial Officer Lee Wise, “Darley is uniquely positioned as both a manufacturer and distributor for larger US prime defense contractors. We meet stringent Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR). Because Darley reinvests most profits back into the company, our financial position is stronger than most of our competitors, allowing us to compete and win in many areas.”
