By Jesse Millard | AZBigMedia

The Virginia-based aerospace and defense company Orbital ATK started construction on two buildings along Chandler’s Price Corridor that will serve as the firm’s Launch Vehicle Division headquarters.  

The two buildings will total 617,000 square feet on a 47-acre campus. There will be 261,000 square feet dedicated to manufacturing on the site. 

Last year, Orbital ATK hired 250 employees in Chandler and the company is working to fill 200 open positions and expand its Chandler footprint by another 50 employees in the next year and a half. 

Orbital ATK announced that it will expand its launch vehicles division in Nov. 2016, and these new Arizona jobs are part of that expansion.  

The company has a growing footprint in the southeast Valley and it’s been growing since the 1980s.
